FreeDos is up to date and should work. I haven't yet gotten MSDOS working with XP already installed. It doesn't like an NTFS partition being there.

Try unetbootin:

It should boot and run off a usb drive. I've just found out that you can only put one partition on a USB pen drive. It is not the same as an external hard drive.

Download one of the iso images. Use the usb maker to copy the image onto the usb stick. Hold down f2 (or del) during boot and select boot from USB.
