If you try to run it from DOS box on Windows 95, type this before running 
Emacs:
		set LFN=y

By ``directly from DOS'' do you mean outside Windows?  If so, please see
if there is a file called case-tab.elc in the lisp directory.  Please
check this when you are OUTSIDE Windows, not from the DOS box inside
Windows.  I'm guessing that you will see a file case-t~1.elc there 
instead of case-tab.elc.  If my guess is correct, please re-read the file 
README.dos in the Emacs distribution.
