I don't know whether anyone of you has the following problem in using DOS prompt. When I open more than one COMMAND.COM (either full screen or windowed), they will give me the message: "Memory Allocation Error Invalid COMMAND.COM System Halt" and I have to terminate through the task through the control menu. I have tried other mode but the problem still persists. However, the system works just fine if I open only ONE DOS-prompt or run DOS applicatons directly through the Program Manager of Windows. I'm running MS-DOS 4.01, 4 Meg RAM with HIMEM.SYS and SMARTDRV.SYS installed. Does anyone have any idea of this? Thanks in advance!
