You can't enter DOS if your PC was preloaded with Windows because MS got rid of that years ago.  All you can do now is enter Command Mode -- which is basically a command-line interface in Windows.

 

You generally bring up the BIOS Boot Devices Menu by pressing F9 repeatedly but if your USB stick is not listed there, you will not be able to boot from it

 

If your PC came in UEFI mode, then you can go into the UEFI settings (F10) and disable Secure Boot, but if that option is not there, or if the USB still is not seen, there is nothing else you can do.
