re: System.ini entry gone on reboot Tuesday, September 29, 2009 at 2:16 pm Windows Me Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by madman420 (15 messages posted) Well, I really looked around for an answer and I think my situation is pretty rare. I decided to just make a workaround for the system.ini lines that Windows ME is automatically removing every reboot. I added a line to c:\autoexec.bat that over-writes the c:\windows\system.ini file with a replacement system.ini file that has the entries that keep getting removed: copy d:\dos\system.ini c:\windows\system.ini This 'fixes' the change WinME makes on every reboot by simply overwriting those changes with mine the next time the PC starts. (I'm using the patched start-up files to allow for autoexec.bat/config.sys) It seems that the "Unable to synchronize the environment variables..." error with 'msconfig' is caused by trailing spaces in autoexec.bat and menu entries in config.sys.
