Booting Win 3.1

My mom's friend has Windows 3.11 on her Pentium 100 computer.
She wants me to fix it so she can boot straight into Windows instead of going "cd Windows" and then "Win." from the prompt.
I know it can be done, but how?
Can someone help please?

edir autoexec.bat - type win for the last line and save. Should boot to Windows from there.
