About DOS

As you know DOS is Microsoft's first operating system. The most common thing you will do with DOS is formatting your hard drive. The next link in the table is a file called format. Save the file to your computer and print it. It has detailed instructions on how to do that. The next link is about making a boot disk. Something very useful for this and something you will probably use later on. I have also included a link for DOS commands.
DOS is a way to boss your computer around, unlike windows you need to know How to tell DOS what you want it to do. It dose not have a graphical user interface so you need to know
  1. What directory your in and how to change it
  2. How to open programs and open or edit files
  3. How to navigate to subdirectories
There are a lot of commands that you just don't need so I recommend just learn what you need for now and practice. You can always go back and learn more if needed. Good luck and have fun
