Probably just the autoexec.bat existing now. It's not hanging, but it's not giving out screen output since there is likely an @echo off command at the start of the file. I've always ran with a config.sys/autoexec.bat pairing, so I've never had "problems" like that. - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
