It's the installed system - what was happening was
I would type: "COPY *.ZIP C:\DOWNLOAD\ZIP"
One file would copy to c:\download\zip, then the a: drive would click and
I got the ever annoying "error copying to a: drive abort retry ignore?"; I
could ignore and it would stop but the copy processed stopped as well. If I
repeat the process I get a clean copy of all files.
I solved the problem by rearranging the autoexec paths (FDAUTO for me :^)
and setting an absolute path for C:\;C:\FDOS;C:\FDOS\BIN
