Boot Win95. click the "Start" button on the task bar click "Shutdown..." menu item select the "Restart the computer in MS-DOS mode?" radio button in the "Shut Down Windows" dialog that appears click "Yes" When you get the DOS prompt, install BootEasy (running in a DOS box will not allow you to write the boot track, you *must* restart Win95 in "MS-DOS mode"... or write a VxD, register with the IOS, unset the logical I/O bit, and port BootEasy to use DeviceIoctl's to do its thing).
