NOTES

   This fixup diskette is used on Japanese systems bundled with 
   Japanese Windows 95 software. This software fixes the missing 
   definition file "DOSIME.SYS" issue observed when restarting or 
   booting to MS-DOS mode from Windows 95J. The fix patches the 
   missing file "DOSIME.SYS" to the hard disk. The "CONFIG.SYS" will 
   also be updated to enable the Japanese characters to be displayed 
   under DOS mode. If there exists a file named "C:\CONFIG.SYS" in    
   your hard drive, it will be changed to "C:\CONFIG.SY~".
