Default dos mode

Which DOS mode are you referring to? The one gotten to by clicking Start Shutdown
Restart in MS-DOS Mode?

If that is the case, try in this order:

1) Boot up and when you get to the C: prompt (DOS), type EXIT and press Enter.

2) If that does not reboot you to Windows, at the C: prompt (DOS), type the
following
and press Enter:

win /wx

(That's W I N space / W X )

3) If that does not fix it, rename the autoexec.bat and config.sys files=
Type the following and press Enter after each line:
CD\
REN autoexec.bat autoexec.ba_
REN config.sys config.sy_

Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to restart.

Post back with your results.
