...but since I had Windows 98 before XP, I didn't even do anything with those files. I only knew of Autoexec.bat, and used it to initialize my DOS mouse driver. That was all.

if your computer can handle it, use some kind of virtualisation prgram to simulate windows 98 on your computer (VMWare/MS Virtual PC 2004/Bochs)
thats what i do.

I recommend losing the Windows and plumping for Linux/BSD. Windows XP is a pig. You can run Dosbox very comfortably on Linux. It's no problem at all. k:
