I know this is a stupid question but how do i start my machine in ms dos mode? On my other computer running Win 98, it is an option on the shutdown menu to restart in ms dos mode, but it's not there in Win ME

Is it ok to just use the icon in the Accessories menu? because I know Windows is still running in the background when I use that
