Both are same..

AnswerQuit MS-DOS (alt+F4) to get back to windows. Then go to Start -> Shutdown -> Restart in DOS mode. The computer will restart DOS but won't start windows. When you want to start windows again, just type win.

ANSWER:

MS-DOS and DOS are the same program: MicroSoft Disk Operating System. If your computer is in DOS mode, type WIN to start up windows. However, if you are already in Windows, then you are actually in the DOS prompt (also called the command prompt) which is a simulated DOS environment run by Windows. In this case, just type EXIT to return to Windows. If you are trying to get your computer into DOS mode, and you have either Windows 95 or 98, go to Start --> Shutdown, and select the option that says "Restart in MS-DOS mode". If you have any version of windows after 95 or 98, then go to Start --> Run, and type in Command to get into the command prompt.

You changed resolution to a mode that your monitor cannot handle.Restart in Safe Mode; to do this (in Windows), restart the computer, and press F8 before you see the windows logo. You may need to press it several times.You should get a menu, and one of the choices is "Boot computer in safe mode". Boot in safe mode, then once your computer is booted, change the resolution to 640x480, then shut down and reboot again (returning to normal mode).
