 Hey Garfield,

     Well you got the path and env correct. No you should not need
 to input this manually. I bet the problem is that Win95 has more than
 one autoexec.bat and it is not using the one you put your path into.
 On my machine I have (win95) an autoexec.bat, autoexec.syd and an
 autoexec.dos. One or more of these extra autos may have been
 hidden files. So put your path and env in all of them and see
 if that doen't fix it.

             Good Luck
