Have you tried a command prompt? It will accept most common DOS commands.

QBasic on Vista

Yes, but it says it cannot start or run due to "incompatibility with 64-bit version of Windows. Please contact the software vendor to see if a 64-bit Windows compatible version is available."

A Google search says that you can do it if you install DOSBOX.
