The installation process (or the manual) says that under some systems and some
circumstance, DOS 5.0 will re-assign drive letters around.  If this is the
case, then obviously your program manager groups won't work.

Try this.  Click on an icon of a DOS program _once_, then select "properties"
from the menu.  Check the path that is written in the edit box.  Now use the
"browse" button to see if the application is where the previous line says it
is.  If it isn't then that's your problem.  Just reassign all the icons.
