hi! i am new to computer stuff and foolishly changed the vgafull.3gr file into an .exe file!meaning i couldnt get any kind of ms-dos to work!

i managed to retrieve the vgafull.3gr file by finding the file on my brothers computer which i saved to disk and placed it in my windows system folder and i deleted the damaged vgafull.exe file!

i can now open up ms-dos through windows but when i try to restart the computer in ms-dos mode the system just reboots and takes me back to windows!

is there any way i can restore the "restart the computer in ms-dos mode" or have i completly knakered it all up?

ive looked at the microsoft help pages but am not getting any further with the problem!

i am using windows 98 by the way!

any help in simple terms would be greatly appreciated!

cheers

chris
