That part is correct, you cannot access real DOS in XP however you can enter a virtual DOS by going to start>>run>>cmd

If you are trying to get into a command prompt at startup like I think you are, hit F8 before the Windows splash screen, and select the option with "Command Prompt".

Create a boot disk on a floppy, change you boot order to the floppy first. This will load up dos.
