| Hi,
config.sys and autoexec.bat are now config.nt and autoexec.nt located in
\windows\system32.
You can try to make a shortcut to the desktop and change the properties
there.
I recommend not to use fullscreen, but to set the properties (80x25 with
fontsize as needed) of the window that it takes nearly the fullscreen except
the task bar.
Its easier for the users and you ommit problems with double lines display on
some cards.
Maybe blink in textscreens was realized via vesa drivers, I think its not
supported in xp anymore. Maybe you can use attributes like + instead.
