i am a newbie here. i am working on a xp os and i need to do some dos work.
I want to restart in dos but xp doesnt give me that option at shutdown nor can i select it at any piont during startup.

XP does not have DOS only a dos emulator.   You can use the command prompt by clicking Start > Run and enter cmd.  Note that not all strictly DOS commands produce the same result in XP

Good luck

Hi,

I love the "open a command window here" in the menu when you right click on any folder.
A small file you  download from Microsoft Power Toys for XP site.
