I do not believe it will run unless it is installed in the root
directory of a drive. For example, if you installed it to C:\
then it should work, but if you installed it to C:\ETKA, it will
not work. One way around this would be to place into your AUTOEXEC.BAT
file a statement like

	SUBST X: C:\ETKA

where X: represents an unassigned but usable drive letter (and
you may have to include in your CONFIG.SYS file the line

	LASTDRIVE=X

to make that possible.
