There's a better way to get to dos from win95 startup.
Try the attached config.sys and autoexec.bat...

The win95 startup screen will interrupt for a startup menu, allowing a
choice for either dos or windows. On my mother's pc, I put it default to
windows in 1 second,.
The line that does this is in config.sys:
menudefault=win,1
