Bernd,

Suggest you copy config.sys and autoexec.bat from school machine to a
FD and then send them into the list.  Also when you do this, tell what
DOS and what version is on the school machines.

With that info the helpful people of the list can probably get you up
and running on those 386s.

l.d.
