SYMPTOMS
If you use DESQview version 2.33 or earlier, and you have SETVER.EXE loaded
as a device driver, the Setver device does not report the specified version
of MS-DOS to the application. This may result in the error message
"Incorrect DOS Version" when you run a program that requires a previous
version of MS-DOS, even though it is correctly loaded into the SETVER
table.
RESOLUTION
If you have programs that require the use of SETVER in MS-DOS and want to
run them in DESQview, contact the Quarterdeck Orders Department for an
upgrade of DESQview to version 2.34.
MORE INFORMATION
A list of programs that require SETVER is available by typing SETVER at
the MS-DOS command prompt. Additional programs may also require the use of
SETVER.
