I have Windows NT and I NEED Dos 6.22 to work. The only problem is this computer ONLY let windows NT boot up. I have OS loader so when my computer starts I get a menu That only has Windows NT. I have Dos 6.22 installed on my computer but the problem is how do I get it to load up?? Os loader won't let me. So, Is there a way I can make a boot disk that allows me to go striaght into dos? Help!
