Yes, they're on the same partition. Please let me know why you think this is not a valid configuration. I believe it is a well supported configuration by Microsoft. I did however, determine the problem thanks to help from all those who answered. My shortcut to CYGNUS.BAT looks like it was migrated during the NT install. That gave the properties tabs that were unexpected by Suhaib and Earnie. I believe it also continued to run CYGNUS.BAT under COMMAND.COM as opposed to CMD.EXE. I created a new shortcut and the properties tabs are as expected along with the "Out of environment space" message no longer occuring.
