How about telling us *what version* of MS-DOS you are using?  It's not
fair to condemn a whole series of operating system versions based upon
problems you've had with one version.  FYI, MS-DOS and PC-DOS version
3.30 is quite stable.

Have you scanned your disk with SCANV to make sure it's not infected
with a virus?
