I just bought MKS Toolkit ver. 2.3 several days ago. So far, I am very satisfied with this handy product. I installed sh.exe as the shell via config.sys and found that 'most' of my DOS applications can run in the new environment without troubles. However, this is not the case for Windows/286. Every time, if I invoked win.com in any directory other than the directory in which win.com and other windows files reside, there appeared a dialog box with message "MS-DOS cannot run" as well as an 'OK' field. After I clicked on the 'OK' for exactly three times, the Executive Window appeared and every thing seemed just find, except that the win.ini was bypassed. Well, of course, I didn't forget to assign the necessary directory to PATH variable. Any idea? Thanks in advance.
