Hi David,

	MSDOS.SYS is a hidden and read-only file.  You have to use 
Windows Explorer to turn off those attributes before you can edit it.  I 
would not recommend messing around with this file unless you know what 
you are doing, because once it's messed up, you have no choice but to 
reinstall the OS.
