Oh you may be better off leaving that the way it was.  That will do no
good or harm to your Cygwin, in my opinion.  Also Microsoft does not
advice using a config.sys file on NT.

Did you run the NT partition during installation?  It should have taken
care of it, unless you forced the Nt installed to install OS in the same
directory where Win95 was already installed.  In that case you are in
big trouble and may consider backing up your data and cleaning the
disk... then doing a fresh install.
