Your question belongs in a newsgroup addressing operating systems, probably
a USENET newsgroup, give the question. This one is for questions, answers,
and discussions about Microsoft Access database software.
FYI, every version of MS DOS "survived" and every version of MS Windows.
All previous ones have been superceded by newer versions, as Vista will
undoubtedly be. So, to me, your question does not make much sense.
