Windows has a graphical interface while DOS is a command line interface.
Windows XP cannot be installed or reinstalled directly from DOS.
MS-DOS ended with Windows NT. It used file command.com to interpret all DOS commands. Win 2000, XP, Vista use a DOS Shell which emulates DOS but is not really DOS.
Both are same as DOS is also an OS.. But Dos is Character User Interface(CUI) But latest Operating systems are Graphical User Interface(GUI) ex: Windows xp, Windows 7, Windows Vista Etc.,
DOS is just the operating system just like Windows XP. DOS SHELL is a program in DOS in which you can browse files and open them, etc. Just generally an easier way to move around the DOS operating system
For starters, DOS is practically obsolete. DOS stands for Disk Operating System and was mostly a Command Line Interface, or CLI for short, OS. Windows XP is a GUI, Graphical User Interface, based OS. So in other words, they are both completely different Operating Systems.
Windows 95 and 98 is based on the Windows 4.x Kernel. Windows 2000 and XP is baed on the NT Kernel. XP sports a different GUI compared to 95982000, this is the main difference between windows 2000/98 and XP.
It doesn't. I have XP at home and there is no "DOS" running in the background. Windows 3.0 and 3.1 did require DOS in order to function, however.
Windows XP and Windows 2003 came before Windows Vista. The 64-bit version of XP was really mostly Windows 2003 branded as XP, and not truly XP, despite the name.

You cannot "go to DOS" in Windows XP. The closest analog is the command prompt, which can be opened by clicking Start > Run, and entering "command."
No. Windows XP has it's own kernel and memory management system.
No, but you have to be really careful when you are working with partions.
