Additions to nr 2:
One should also add "lh" before every line that starts a program that you
would like to keep in autoexec.bat (probably easier to understand for a
beginner then which programs he/she should remove, which should be done in
config.sys as well).
Adding "dos=high,umb" to config.sys also helps.
And IMHO one should assume that "noems highscan" is a good start for EMM386
(while RAM isn't).
And nr 3 should be "reboot" since CTRL-ALT-DEL also works (or reboot.com or
whatever you might prefer).
