Editing MSDOS.SYS
There is file hidden in your root directory called MSDOS.SYS. First, make sure Windows is showing all hidden files. Next, change the attribute and uncheck Hidden and System. Open the file with notepad. Search for the entry you want and edit. If you can't find the option, just add it into the file. You will find that editing the file will enable you to edit some cool start-up options you want.
