Hey!  Sounds familiar.  Fortunately there is a solution!
Add the following command to your config.sys file (yes, that's
config.sys!) :

shell=command.com /e:xxxx /p

where:     
	xxxx = a number in the range 160 - 32768
	this specifies the size of the environment space
	
	/p causese command.com to remain loaded and procede to
	escute autoexec.bat.

Let me know if you have problems.
