billrich,
Command prompt is not DOS, its simply a command-line interface for Windows.
And Gehennax,
If you want to get into DOS(only applies if you have Win9X, ME or older Win OS), on your Root directory(C:\) open the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, and edit the contents to fit your needs.
If you wanted to enter a command before start-up, you can change it to this:
@echo off
prompt Enter a command:
Hope this helps
