This doesn't reflect my 
experience at all -- my son's 
PC boots Win95's DOS 7 from 
drive C: (a BIOS limitation 
that has nothing to do with 
the OS) and has the entire 
WINDOWS directory tree 
happily ensconced on drive E:.  
The location of the various 
crucial Win95 directory 
hierarchies is contained in 
the hidden Msdos.sys text 
file in the root directory 
of drive C:, and they can be 
on any logical drive 
accessible to DOS 7, that 
is, any logical drive that 
doesn't require the GUI's 
driver code for access.
