I don't believe you can get rid of the config.sys. If it's a 0 byte file it isn't taking up any room anyhow so what's the problem? As for autoexec.bat....try going to your run menu, type "msconfig" (no quotes) and click on the autoexec.bat tab and do your editing there and see if that doesn't work for you.
