SUMMARY
The Microsoft CD-ROM extensions require MSCDEX.EXE version 2.2 or later to be compatible with MS-DOS 5.0 or enhanced mode Windows 3.x.



MORE INFORMATION
Problems with older MSCDEX.EXE files include CDR error messages such as:

The application may also display the copyright and version information and then return to the command prompt.

For MSCDEX.EXE version 2.2 to function correctly with MS-DOS 5.0, SETVER.EXE must be loaded in the CONFIG.SYS file.
