SYMPTOMS
5th Generation's Direct Access version 5.1 for MS-DOS may generate the following error message after you upgrade to MS-DOS 6.0 or later:

Failed Detection Level 1: Command.com has changed.



RESOLUTION
According to 5th Generation Technical Support, the Direct Access installation must be upgraded to work correctly with MS-DOS 6.0 or later. This procedure involves deleting all executable files (.EXEs) from the subdirectory containing Direct Access files, clean booting with MS-DOS 6.0 or later, and then reinstalling Direct Access by choosing the &quot;Perform update from prior version of Direct Access 5.1&quot; option during the Direct Access Setup.

For more information on this procedure, call 5th Generation Technical Support.

The Direct Access Menu version 5.1 is manufactured by 5th Generation, a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
