-regarding-
This is a general error, in my opinion, independent of system specs; regarding command prompt erratic behavior resulting from wildcard usage.

As you can see, DOSBOX is behaving erratically with wildcards.
>COPY * ..\DAT\0 File(s) copied.
The above should normally copy all files regardless whether they have an extension or not. There were 8 files to be copied, that would normally have copied over, I believe, in DOS 5.
