At one point when I totally confused myself, the PC, the CD and everything the CD intelligently loaded FreeDOS (which I didn't even know was there) and gave me the polite message "I can't run without Windows". So now I know that I have something like FreeDOS on one of my CDs ;-)
You might need a few things in config.sys or autoexec.bat like mouse driver, himem.sys or whatever else QPC1 might need, but I'm sure Darren has done something like this before (which is probably where else I've heard the name FreeDOS), the PC which is used ONLY for QPC1 and sod everything else!
