Thanks sidewinder for your advise but it did not work.  I tried the copy commands in c:\windows   directory and no commands worked.

I than went to the c:\    directory and the commands that worked before (see earlier thread) worked and the other commands did not.

Anyone else have any suggestions?

Can I install dos 6.22 without messing anything up?

Thanks

If you have Windows loaded, it's a little late to install DOS. Always load the lowest common denominator operating system first. However if you load DOS 6.22 it can only recognize a 2 gig partition.

If you have Partition Magic, you can do it after the fact.

Please post as much information about your computer, operating system, and problem as possible, what happened prior to problems, etc. Too much info is OK, too little is pointless! Don't just say "My computer doesn't work. What's wrong?"
