Create a file called _bashrc and put everything there.  Then point the 
HOME variable in the environment to the directory where _bashrc is kept.

This is all explained in the Bash man page, btw.  There's also a file 
README.dos that summarizes the DOS-specific file names (this file is 
called .bashrc on Unix, but DOS disallows leading dots in file names).
