How do you properly add a new config.sys & autoexec.bat
file to W2K Pro where they presently don't exist?
Can the two files be copied over from another PC?

Thank you.
 
Why do you want to use these old out dated files ?? use
group policies via active directory.
 
I think you can create one in C:\windows\system32 ??? do
a search for "running dos apps" in the knowledge base.
 
You need to edit CONFIG.NT and AUTOEXEC.NT to create the environment that will run under
the command prompt that runs the DOS program.

Do I need to rename each file or leave it with the NT
extension? Do I need to move each file from the system32
folder to the root?

You need to EDIT the files that exist and leave the .NT extension. This is not Win9x/ME
this is how NT based systems work.
