Q. D. Neufeld
asks, "Can you start a Windows 98 system at a DOS prompt, rather than
having to load Windows 98 and then restart in MS-DOS mode?"
A. You can boot directly to DOS (without starting Windows) every time by making a simple setting change in Tweak UI. (Quick review: The Tweak UI PowerToy is on your Windows 98 installation CD, |
in the Tools\Reskit\Powertoy folder. To
install it, right-click Tweakui.inf and select Install. To open Tweak
UI, double-click its icon in Control Panel.)
Open Tweak UI and select the Boot tab. Deselect Start GUI Automatically, then click OK to close Tweak UI. The next time you start your system, you'll go straight to a DOS prompt and stay there. (In case you forget, type Win at the DOS prompt to start Windows.) |
