Ok, i'm going to sound like a right idiot here, but can anyone help me out with the exact syntax i need to type to run a file from DOS?

long story short;

my comp wont boot, and before i take it to a repair shop, i've been told to try a few things via dos (memtest, and the latest mobo drivers)

so i've put memtest on a floppy, and some of the mobo utility/driver thingies on a floppy, can get into something called freeDOS, but i don't know the exact syntax i'm meant to be using

assuming i want to run/install the file xyz.exe (or w/e)

the path would be A:\xyz.exe

what exactly do i need to type in DOS to get this running? :confused:



thanks in advance (and don't laugh :P)
