Hello, I'm a programmer and I want to run Debug but everytime I try it says "Incorrect version of DOS." I have MS-DOS 6.2. What MS-DOS version does Debug run on.

DEBUG and some other DOS programs are release specific. You cannot use an older version.

Of course you can! You need to load SETVER in your config.sys, which tells programs what DOS version they're running on. DEBUG is a DOS command, so it will listen to this info (there're other ways to get DOS's version number).

There should be more info about SETVER in the HELP program or, if you cannot run it, on the web. Try www.google.com and search for the syntax!

You also need the version that DEBUG wants. Just try some, starting with the last ones.
