I always like people to post the code they tried to at least get a better understanding of what they are trying to do.

If you need to change the working directory you could do that two ways. You can use the CD or PUSHD command.

CD /D "C:\Path to Folder"
or
PUSHD "C:\Path to Folder"
Then execute whatever other commands you need to execute.
Then you can use the PAUSE command to force the user to type a key to continue.

You posted the correct syntax for running the FC command. The only issue may be is if those two files do not exist in the Working Directory.
This should work just fine. Just as you posted it.
fc /b nand1.bin nand2.bin

But if those two files do not exist in the working directory then you need to put the full path to the files.

fc /b "C:\path to folder\nand1.bin" "C:\path to folder\nand2.bin"
