The location of the DOS support files have changed from C:\DOS to 
C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND and needs to be in the path in order for those 
programs to work.  I use them all the time!

I've run a huge range of games and game demos under this DOS and have yet 
to have a failure!  Could there be other problems (beside a bad PATH 
statement or incomplete install) that could account for those games not 
running?  A bad setup is more likely to cause a failure than a bad DOS.
