HI Martin: 
FreeDOS certainly works well.  It is not trivial to install on a WindowsXP 
machine, 
though, unless you want to destroy the Windows installation and re-install.  It 
CAN 
be done, by resizing partitions and adding a boot loader.  I wrote up a 
procedure 
that works for FreeDOS or MSDOS which is at: 
http://www.k1ea.com/hints/index.htm 
Dual Boot "Real" DOS... 
Several folks on this list have successfully added DOS to WindowsXP machines 
using this procedure. 
I recommend using GPARTED from the System Rescue CD now 
www.sysresccd.org . 
Let me know if you have any questions or want more information!

try FreeDOS

Download the iso file, burn it onto a CD and install. The installation 
is very simple.
