Yeah, you need to edit the msdos.sys file.
Usually have to change the attributes on it to be able to edit it.
At the C: prompt type attrib -r -s -h msdos.sys
Then edit msdos.sys
Change the line bootgui=1 to bootgui=0
Save the file edit
Return the attribs attrib +r +s +h msdos.sys
Should just boot to DOS after that. If you want to go into Windows
afterwards, just type win at the dos prompt.
To return to the original boot process just return the line to bootgui=1.
