Yes Dos 6.22 is a very good verson of dos. In fact I've been told by Dos 7.0 user that there is ver little different. What are the error ? What kind of computer are you useing. It may be the setup disk that are bad. Run a scandisk on the setup disk .Do a full. If you find that you need some new setup disk go to this link. Don't try use the old ones .
