Can't Reboot to MS DOS

[genova]

I can't reboot to MS DOS. When ever i select "reboot to MS-DOS" I just get a black dos screen with a blinking cursor. I can type and all but I can't see what I'm typing. The commands work but again I can't see the outcome of it. Ie: typed "win", it boots to w98 but I am staring at a blank screen. Btw, command.com is in my C drive.

Anyone?

Instead of using the "Restart to MS-DOS" option from the Start->Shutdown menu..press F8 while the system is booting up and then choose the Command Prompt and see if that happens..Regards

have you tried "echo on" command. command prompt should come up.
