Exit to DOS? I'm booting to DOS, but no writing to the NTFS C: drive is
possible. And that's what I want to do, in order to copy a downloaded
shell32.dll.

kind will be needed, to open up the ISO and

Probably too big a task for me.
Unless all you want to do is restore factory defaults,
which undoes everything you had, ever since the
initial plain Windows install.
Sigh. Thanks, Jordan.
