I have an old PC with the keyboard plug prior to PS/2 and a serial
mouse (which I can't find, so I am using a USB mouse).
I changed the "shell=explorer.exe" to "shell=[a batch file to jump into
Game Launcher]". When the computer is booted, it processes autoexec
and config, calls win[windows], and goes into Game Launcher frontend.
Great, it works.
Now I want to change it back to "shell=explorer.exe" to tweak the
machine some more, but when I run edit at the DOS prompt, I can't open
a file (or access the menu bar) - it seems the ALT keys are not working
in the DOS environment! The mouse is USB, so forget about using it to
get to the menu.
Any clues?
