You will have to find some old 3 1/2" floppy disks that have Dos on them in order to install DoS on your laptop. Also if I remeber correctly I think Windows 95 that was on on the floppy version came with DoS.

If you can Find an old 3 1/2" floppy drive you can install it in your other computer and go this link and DL DoS Download Details - Microsoft Download Center - MS-DOS 6.2 Step-up Files

Also found this for youMicrosoft MS-DOS v6.22 Plus Enhanced Tools floppy disks | eBay

Good Luck :D
