The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system versions 6.2, 6.22
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
If you install MS-DOS 6.2 or 6.22 Step-Up and then use your MS-DOS 6.0 Upgrade
disks to run SETUP /E (to install the optional utilities), you receive the
following error message:
Cannot identify your version of DOS
CAUSE
=====
Because you have upgraded to MS-DOS 6.2 or 6.22, you cannot run Setup from an
earlier version of MS-DOS.
WORKAROUND
==========
To work around this problem, do one of the following:
- Follow the procedure in the "Updating Microsoft Backup, Undelete and
Anti-Virus" in the README.NOW file (located on your Step-Up disk or in the
directory that contains your downloaded Step-Up files).
NOTE: The procedure is not duplicated here because it is different for the
retail version and the downloadable (BBS) version of Step-Up.
-or-
- Uninstall MS-DOS 6.2 or 6.22, run MS-DOS 6.0 Setup with the /E parameter, and
then reinstall MS-DOS 6.2 or 6.22 Step-Up.
