Hello,
 
The README.V35 file included in the DSSAT35 directory contains some info.
that might help with your problem.
 
-  The analysis programs under Seasonal and Sequence use a utility called
AUTO.EXE to save memory.  It has been reported that this can cause a system
error or occasional "hanging" on Pentium II computers which are faster than
200 Mhz.  When this occurs, check your COMSPEC statement by typing SET
in a MS-DOS window.  Add the following statement to AUTOEXEC.BAT
 
SET COMSPEC=C:\COMMAND.COM
 
if the SET statement shows something different.  Reboot your computer
to make this statement active.  This will solve most of the analysis problems,
but not all.  (7/31/1998).
 
I hope this helps.
 
Regards,
-Daniel
