CONFIG.SYS (DOS)
Appearance
A text file that handles the boot configuration and setup of a DOS operating system, further configuration is then done with another configuration text file called AUTOEXEC.BAT. The main difference between the two is that the boos setup stuff in CONFIG.SYS is something that can only be changed via a hard of soft reboot of the computer while configuration items placed in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file can be changed from the command line while the system is running.
