  Look in the Control Panel for TweakUI.  If you don't already have
it, you can download it from Microsoft.  It lets you choose whether
the menu is displayed; if it is, what the default and timeout values
are, and if not you can pick whether you want to watch your
AUTOEXEC.BAT execute, or stare at the splash screen instead.
  [Controlling the options from TweakUI is much simpler than
unprotecting MSDOS.SYS and editting it.  I'm betting that if this
setting has come up by accident or as a prank, TweakUI may already be
installed.]
