Hi
I need to get into Dos mode in order to delete a file which is blocking
SafeMode to run.
Safemode starts loading but stops at a particular file and then can't get
further.
Thanks

Forgot to say, how can I get into Dos mode?

There is no way to reboot a WinXP PC into Real Mode DOS unless
you've set up a dual-boot system. The WinNT family of 32-bit (and now
64-bit) graphical desktop operating systems, of which WinXP is the
latest generation, has never used, included, or "ridden upon" MS-DOS.
The Recovery Console's CLI (Command Line Interface) is the closest you
can come to the old "DOS mode."
