As you have indicated by the two changes to c:\autoexec.bat will NOT
cause the problems you indicated. Check out what else you did between
when your W95 was working and now. You can always boot into DOS and
remove the changes to autoexec.bat.  I suspect that you have made
other changes to config.sys and/or autoexec.bat at the same time and
screwed up the multiple boot options that you had or have introduced
multiple boot options.

The only problem you may have done is to cause DJGPP problems if there
are any other programs with the same name before the c:\djgpp\bin
director\y, but usually there aren't any clashes.
