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!!
