You need to get a DOS boot disk in order to do that. Try
http://www.bootdisk.com for one. These days, most places offer either a BIOS
install that runs within windows or one that creates its own boot disk, but
if your manufacturer doesn't, then you can just do this. You can also create
a bootable floppy using the format tools on the floppy drive.
