Bleh, no, just a in-windows emulator, there is no true DOS in new computers anymore.

That's what I thought. And an in-Windows emulator is useless if you can't actually get into Windows.

but i dont think he did a fresh install and deleted/reformatted his HDD.. he probbaly tryed to upgrade.. so he most likely has dos.. like i said i emailed him so i can get more info then i will help him fix it.. he just kept gettin off so quick i didnt have time to tell him things before he did it.. he was also makin the CD and i know 2 of them had errors.. so he could have used one of the CDs with an error..

I haven't much studied the specifics of this, but I would think that installing XP would alter the way the computer boots, thus bypassing the mere possibility of entering DOS. Don't quote me, though.
