SYMPTOMS
After you install Word for Windows on a laptop computer, the following error message may occur when you attempt to start Word, even though you restarted (rebooted) the computer so the changes in your Autoexec.bat and Config.sys files could take effect:
CAUSE
When you restart (reboot) some laptop computers, they run in a standby mode instead of actually restarting. Therefore, MS-DOS does not process the modified Config.sys and Autoexec.bat files.
RESOLUTION
You must turn off the laptop computer and then turn it on again to fully restart (reboot) it. This causes the operating system to process the modified Autoexec.bat and Config.sys files so that the changes made by Word Setup can take effect.
