Re: "Cant run command"

I assume you have ";c:\dos;" in your "path=" in the autoexec.bat.
That ought to be enough, but you might try this (a separate line in the
autoexec.bat):

 set comspec.com=c:\dos\command.com

You would do well to check to make sure all the confusing semicolons and
colons are properly placed in the "path=" line of the autoexec.bat.
