Both problems are related i would say probably at startup a
dos program is activated (CTB?) check the file system.ini
for any reference to this program in the boot section
(probably a .pif file) and remove the line or something in
the startup folder or in the registry check this keys :
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Run
or if present
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
RunOnce

Subject: [PCBUILD] Unwanted DOS bootup
What could possibly cause a Pentium machine to suddenly
change from a
normal Win-95 boot to a combination of Win-95 and DOS at the
same time?
The bootup screen displays both the normal desk top view,
but also the
DOS C prompt, but with an "X" in the upper right corner to
kill the DOS
OS. Clicking on that "X" returns the machine to the normal
Windows
desktop. Typing 'EXIT' also returns the machine to WIN-95.
One other curious thing is that at the DOS bootup there
appears on the
task bar at the bottom of the desktop the active job 'CTB'.
What in the
world does mean?
Help!!
