How to Boot Pure DOS under WinNT/2K/XP - China DOS Union Forum

First time here, please take care of me!

I am using a dual system of 98 and XP. After processing according to this method, when I select MS-DOS, the system defaults to entering the 98 system. What should I do? Is there a solution?

Hey!!!!Hello everyone, is the webmaster a girl?

Thanks to wengier's article, I tried to make a dual-boot menu for DOS and Win2K. After I used SRCBOOT C: C:\NTBOOT.DAT /S to save the boot sector of Win2K, then used SYS C: to transfer DOS system files to the C drive, and finally used SRCBOOT C: C:\NTBOOT.DAT /R command to restore the boot sector of Win2K but couldn't restore it. The system prompted "system halt....see the lock /?....", I'm very anxious. Please,各位 experts, how should I do?

Wow............This is the wellspring of knowledge!! The foundation is the必经之路 for masters, thanks to Wengier and the person walking, thank you!! I'm also a newbie, but I think I can become a master here!

My Windows 2k system cannot execute SRCBOOT, and the system displays READING BOOTSECTOR...... COUNT NOT READER SEDTOR. How to handle it to return to pure DOS?

Why can't that BootPart software be downloaded?

Or download a "MS-DOS 7.10 Complete Installation Version" in the "DOS Boot Disk" section. It can automatically create a dual boot with WinNT/2K/XP.

Wengier, my operation steps are as follows:

(After carefully reading your "Good Tools for Disk Maintenance SRCTools" and "How to Boot Pure DOS under WinNT/2K/XP" and modifying according to my own situation) Please take a look at where the problem is.

1. First, save the boot information of WinXP to a file.

SRCBOOT C: I:\BOOTSECT.SAV/S
SRCMBR 0 I:\OLDMBR.SAV/S
SRCFAT C: I:\SAVED.FAT/S

2. Execute the command SYS C:

3. Save the content in the master boot sector at this time (that is, the DOS boot information) to the C:\BOOTSECT.DOS file.

SRCBOOT C: C:\BOOTSECT.DOS/S
SRCMBR 0 C:\MBRSECT.DOS/S
SRCFAT C: C:\FATSECT.DOS/S

4. Restore the boot information of WinXP.

SRCBOOT C： I:\BOOTSECT.SAV/R
SRCMBR 0 I:OLDMBR.SAV/R
SRCFAT C: I:\SAVED.FAT/R

5. Modify the C:\BOOT.INI file.

Add a line under the section: C:\="MS-DOS"

I got stuck at the first step. Because after entering the command line, the screen always reminds me of the input format of SRCBOOT or SRCMBR or SMCFAT, but the format I entered is correct.

Wait a minute, the experts will come to help you soon.
I'm not an expert, so don't look at me...

Thanks, cn_archer. With your words, my anxious mood has improved a bit. Because I can no longer enter WinXP in area C.

My machine has no floppy drive and boots into DOS from the CD.

Excuse me, where is the boot sector of WIN2000?
