Hi Henry,

When the boot process starts you should see a small white block
in the top left hand corner(boot blob). As soon as you see it
press <Alt>&<F1> and you should get a screen with a menu of
choices.

Select the option to go to the command line.

On the command line type:

c:/os2/boot /dos

then press enter. This should replace the DOS boot files and your
system should reboot in DOS mode.
