yer unfortunately on 98 it was just holding F8 before the boot screen
but how do i do it with xp? i tried f8 before the boot screen but i do not get any option of booting in command prompt. i just need to delete a file which is constantly in use so i g2 do it b4 windows boots, i thought i wud do what i did on 98 but it does not work on xp
so then, how do i boot xp in dos (no wait... command prompt)
thanks
