There is no DOS mode in Windows XP, and it's therefore correct
that you can't run in it.

However many DOS programs can run in Windows XP anyway. For more
help tell us what programs you're trying to install and exactly
what happens when you try, including the exact verbatim text of
any error messages you get.
