This article was previously published under Q135144 SYMPTOMS
Your computer stops responding (hangs), or you see a blue screen with an
error message, after you close an MS-DOS session that contains a network
command that is still in progress when you close the session.
CAUSE
During network operations in an MS-DOS session, your computer may send a
request to another computer that does not respond immediately. The problem
stated above can occur if you close the MS-DOS session, and then the other
computer responds to the network request.
RESOLUTION
Do not close an MS-DOS session while a network operation is in progress.
Wait for any network command that you issue to finish.
MORE INFORMATION
If your computer is configured to run login scripts, an MS-DOS window
starts when you log on. Do not close this command window, or the problem
stated above may occur.
