What could possibly  cause a Pentium machine to suddenly change from a
normal Win-95 boot to a combination of Win-95 and DOS at the same time?
The bootup screen displays both the normal desk top view, but also the
DOS C prompt, but with an "X" in the upper right corner to kill the DOS
OS.  Clicking on that "X" returns the machine to the normal Windows
desktop.  Typing 'EXIT' also returns the machine to WIN-95.

One other curious thing is that at the DOS bootup there appears on the
task bar at the bottom of the desktop the active job 'CTB'.  What in the
world does mean?

Help!!
