I am running an old dos program, which is loaded on my network, on a windows 2000 machine. When I try to run this dos program I receive a dos error: 5 message. The odd thing is I can run this program on other win2k machines. Any help is appreciated.

Dos Error #5 is an ILLEGAL FUNCTION CALL

if it works on other machines you might want to try and reinstall it
