Here is a link that explains the process, assuming you upgraded from a previous OS already on the system. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/using/productdoc/en/default.asp?url=/WINDOWSXP/home/using/productdoc/en/uninstall_windowsxp.asp Sorry to hear that you are having problems. You can go to a DOS shell (it's not really DOS, but DOS is typically not a good thing) by using from "Start", selected "Run" and then type "cmd". You can add "cmd" to your start menu. I have tried a couple of old games that were DOS based, and to be honest, they worked fine under XP. If you have a large DOS collection, most of your stuff should work fine under XP, that's one of the reasons it's taken Microsoft so long to finally get rid of DOS underneath Windows. That was by far the BIGGEST technical problem with Windows 95 - ME. Hope this helps.
