Hi Trouble! If a persone used dos 6.0, 7.0 , not the dos that comes with windows , but just a dos program the computer should be able to boot up in dos. Then a person could run dos games or other dos programs. I still have dos 5 and maybe six. At the computer speeds today I am assuming that is true, but I don't know that for sure since I haven't tried that since my 486 computer days.
