The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Flight Simulator for MS-DOS, version 5.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When you install Flight Simulator, after using the FSSYSTEM.EXE program to
create a startup disk, Setup may quit and display the following error message:
Cannot copy SETUP.EXE.
RESOLUTION
==========
This problem occurs on machines that do not have a COMMAND.COM file in the
MS-DOS directory.
To correct this problem, copy COMMAND.COM from the startup disk (or from the root
of your hard disk drive) to your <drive>:\<DOS> directory, where
<drive> is your hard disk drive and <DOS> is your MS-DOS directory.
For example, if your hard disk drive is drive C and your MS-DOS directory is
DOS, copy COMMAND.COM to C:\DOS.
MORE INFORMATION
================
When the FSSYSTEM.EXE program creates a startup disk, it sets the path in the
AUTOEXEC.BAT to the following:
path A:\;C:\DOS
If you remove the startup disk from drive A after starting your machine, and if
COMMAND.COM is not present in the C:\DOS directory, the Setup program cannot
find COMMAND.COM. If Setup cannot find COMMAND.COM, it quits.
