Running [[Norton Commander]] on startup before windows 9x is a practical way to run various [[DOS]] games and continue to boot to windows when needed. This easy batch script will add ability to load norton commander only if necessary by pressing Y key on startup, other way it will load windows automatically in 10 seconds if no button is pressed. You can also override your **autoexec.bat** with this script.

<code>
@echo off
:start
echo Press Y key to run Norton Commander
echo You have 10 seconds to do it
echo Or we will load windows by default
choice /T:N,10 /C:YN "Your choice ? "
IF ERRORLEVEL 2 GOTO no
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO nc

:no
echo Continuing to run windows...
goto exit

:nc
C:\nc\nc
goto start

:exit
