That article applies to 9x and has no relevance to XP 2000 or NT (as it clearly stats
in the top left corner)
Under 9x You can shutdown windows and operate in MS-DOS then restart windows
But XP 2000 and NT don’t sit on top of an MS-DOS kernel so there is no OS under it
to exit to
So what are you trying to do? The instructions in that article aren't going to help
but we might be able to
Unless you're trying to reboot into MS-DOS which can't be done in XP
