You need to say, either (simplest):
 d:
 cd [d:]\xyw4dos\filters
or, under NT's CMD.EXE:
 cd /D d:\xyw4dos\filters
or (because it works on any Win32 platform, using KMD.EXE):
 kmd /c cd /D d:\xyw4dos\filters
Use the /D switch to change current drive in addition to changing current
directory for a drive. Not available with Win9x's COMMAND.COM
