If you did, you must have chosen only the WINDOWS part and not the DOS DPMI support. If this is the case go back and do a Selective Install. This time make sure to install DOS and Windows both. They appear on one page. The first half of the page refers to DOS and the bottom half to Windows. Do install both. The other possible reason is that you have unselected DOS support during instal Hope this helps. Karu.
