Greetings!

We have a problem that has exhausted our local resources, any ideas from
the Internet community would be greatly appreciated!  We have a 386 Clone
that was configured to load DEC Pathworks and then launch Microsoft Windows
3.0.  The person who was on the computer was trying to clean up the PC by
using the File Manager. While moving some files, the PC locked up.  She
rebooted the machine.  When the machine came back up, the Pathworks
software was loaded and Windows was called.  The Windows banner page came
up and then a DOS prompt showed up in the upper left-hand corner of the
screen.

We have reinstalled Windows, copied all INI files from another machine to
this one with the same result.
