All my machines have WIN95 on them. Some will run a DOS 5.0 application called GEOS, 
some will now. The machines that run the old DOS program, all had MS-DOS on their 
machine before WIN95 was loaded on top of it. The machines that will not run the old DOS 
program never had DOS on their machine before.

I did a mem /c to see what was loaded. I noticed on the machines that ran the old DOS 
program, MS-DOS was loaded into memory. On machines that never had DOS on their system, 
I just see SYSTEM loaded into memory.

How can I get MS-DOS loaded into memory on a WIN95 machine, or, how can I get the old 
DOS program to run? 

PS Already tried SETVER
