The MS-DOS startup disk only allows the system to boot
into an MS-DOS prompt. The disk contains no additional
tools. If you have ntsf file system you won't be able to
access your hard drive.

You have other options. At boot up depress and hold F8.
choose the option :

Last Known Good Configuration

or this is a new option if you have sp2

I can't rememeber exactly, " Disable system error restart"

Or you start in safe mode.
