Use the restart key to select the desired start mode. Press enter to confirm. Note that if you select the boot dos with CDROM + USB option, it will take a long time (1-2 minutes) to scan the USB device during startup ), please wait.
7. After the startup is successful, the DOS loading successful is displayed at the:/> prompt. Now that the DOS system is started, you can do what you should do now.
Note: Back up the original data on the USB flash disk before making the boot disk. It is best to format the USB flash disk completely. 4. Hard Disk DOS Startup
Target Audience: friends who do not have a soft drive, USB flash drive, recorder, or optical drive (friends who like speed)
Method 1: If your c disk is in the FAT32 format before the new system is installed (2 k/XP/2003), you can use the DOS boot disk to start the system and run the Sys C: Command, transfer the DOS system file to drive C, and then install 2 k/XP/2003 (note that the partition format of drive C is not changed during installation). After windows is installed, after the instance is restarted, two startup options will appear, asking you to choose whether to start 2 k/XP/2003 or Microsoft Windows (DOS). Press enter to select the ↑ ↓ key and press enter to confirm.
Method 2: If you have installed 2 k/XP/2003 or the system disk is in NTFS format, but want to install dos again, you can modify some system files, but it is troublesome. Here we recommend the following simple method:
A. Supports memory management of himem and emm386, which can break the limit of KB of common DoS Memory.
B, can drive a variety of common types of optical drive (CDROM, DVD-ROM ).
C. Support for smartdrv disk buffer acceleration, which greatly speeds up disk read/write in DOS, especially when installing the system in DOS or using a ghost image file, which saves you a lot of time.
D. Recognize the USB flash drive and automatically assign a drive letter to it.
E. You can select whether NTFS partitions are supported.
F. automatically load the mouse driver.
1. Download The vfloopycompressed package of this tool, uncompress it to a hard disk, run vfloopy.exe in it, and select the NTFS file included in the compressed package in the image file column. IMG, other do not need to change, directly click the application button, OK, and then the software will ask you to restart the system.

Http://nnmm.arongsoft.net/dos/VFloopy-ntfs-v1104.rar
2. After the system is restarted, before entering 2 k/XP/2003, the boot menu will include "start from virtual boot floppy disk", which is the option to start to dos, select it and press enter to enter the DOS menu. The meaning of the DOS menu is as follows:
Boot dos with CDROM Drive Optical Drive
Boot dos with CDROM + USB. Drive drive and USB flash drive
Boot dos with CDROM + NTFS. Drive drive and NTFS partition supported
Boot dos only starts dos and loads memory management and smartdrv cache.
Use the restart key to select the desired start mode. Press enter to confirm. Note that if you select the boot dos with CDROM + USB option, it will take a long time (1-2 minutes) to scan the USB device during startup ), please wait.
After selecting boot dos with CDROM + NTFS, the NTFS read/write tool will be automatically loaded. In this way, the NTFS partition can be operated under DOS, which makes sense to special users.
3. At this point, the hard disk version of DOS boot has been successfully created. As long as you do not reinstall the system or format the system disk, this DoS boot menu will always exist.
Note: Do not use the Sys command to transmit the system to the system disk. This will damage the system boot information.
