I have had more >trouble with bugs with MS-DOS then with any other operating system.... How about telling us *what version* of MS-DOS you are using? It's not fair to condemn a whole series of operating system versions based upon problems you've had with one version. FYI, MS-DOS and PC-DOS version 3.30 is quite stable. Have you scanned your disk with SCANV to make sure it's not infected with a virus?
