   I can't speak for whether MSCONFIG wanted to restore a wrong file.  =
It's a support tool only and I can't remember if I have ever used it.  = You 
would have to give me more specifics.  What I'm questioning you on = and it 
seems you are backtracking is that there are something that fits = the name you 
gave of "build-custom-DLL-at-install-time".

  Ah, yes, MOVECPM your new CBIOS; you had to remind me of that.

  "corrupt."  MSCONFIG wanted to restore the temporary setup-version of =
one
  file from the miniCAB in \OPTIONS\CABS or from the CD.  This would =

only way
  you could make a proper version was with a nuke install of Windows.
  Catch-22.
