[Ham-Computers] Need DOS help

[Jim Hill]

I started to follow Robert Downs' suggestion, but discovered I must 
long as Administrator to save changes - even though the file is on a 
CD-RW.  I bought this computer on eBay and installed everything, but 
don't recall what I did about the Administrator's password.  I tried 
obvious passwords like admin, administrator, nothing, and password 
without success. I need to keep looking for my installation notes.

However, I need something to know my changes are working.  I need 
some code to display a statement on the screen, like horse or this 
works, and then return to the A: prompt.  Any suggestions?
