The problem is that DOS tests ERRORLEVEL for a value GREATER THAN or
EQUAL to whatever number you've specified on your batch file... So, you
have to begin testing for the highest errorlevel. Try somethink like
 
  IF ERRORLEVEL 5 GOTO FOO1
  IF ERRORLEVEL 4 GOTO FOO2
  IF ERRORLEVEL 3 GOTO FOO3
  GOTO END
  :FOO1
  ECHO ERRORLEVEL IS FIVE!
  GOTO END
  :FOO2
  ECHO ERRORLEVEL IS FOUR!
  GOTO END
  :FOO3
  ECHO ERRORLEVEL IS THREE!
  :END

  This should work...
