Edit it in Notepad. Some line has got added that should not be there.
Aside from a lot of lines starting REM reduce it to

REM Install CD ROM extensions
lh %SystemRoot%\system32\mscdexnt.exe

REM Install network redirector (load before dosx.exe)
lh %SystemRoot%\system32\redir

REM Install DPMI support
lh %SystemRoot%\system32\dosx

and possibly a SET or PATH line, by adding REM and a space at the start
of any others that do not already have it
