I run PCDOS 3.3, and this happens for me too. But very seldom, maybe once
every other month. I suppose it has to do with the non-resident part of
command.com (in high memory) being written over by an application, which
necessitates it to be reloaded from disk. For some reason, DOS seem not
to find it. I haven't looked into this, because it's no big problem for
me. Could it have something to do with redefining SWITCHAR to '-'? I do
that on my machine. Maybe it means DOS cannot find the path given by the
COMSPEC env. variable?
