Windows will only start WinWord, Excel and Smalltalk when invoked from
a floppy version of MSDOS 5.0. All other programs, including Word and
Quick C, when invoked from the windows program manager, cannot be found
by windows. All of these programs can be successfully invoked from
PCDOS 3.3. 

Anybody know what the problem is?
