The startup batch file for the game includes the path C:\Dos\mem. If you upgraded from an earlier version of MS-DOS, the batch file tries to run the Mem program from the earlier version of MS-DOS, resulting in the error message "Incorrect DOS version." If you do not have an earlier version of MS-DOS, or the MS-DOS directory is something other than C:\Dos, you receive the error message "Bad command or filename."
