95029 2002-11-01 02:47:00 By command prompt, you mean hitting Win+R
Typing CMD
and then that, or DOS Prompt?

95030 2002-11-01 02:53:00 No, the command prompt is a DOS box or window. Start / Programs / Command Prompt. The icon says MSDOS and the DOS bit is interleaved in red, purpel and yellow. Open that and type the command in. crozier (2004)

95032 2002-11-01 03:27:00 Now you have lot's of time over the weekend to see what you can break in you PC ;) crozier (2004)
95033 2002-11-01 03:32:00 Hehe, Yeah, The weekend :s Dunno how many PC's I could wreck this weekend, Last weekend, I did a Win2K install and then a RedHat 8, and then another Win2K and then back again to Win2K.. All on only 1 PC!

I would do a multi boot, but the HDD's only about 3 Gig, so no can do really.

I was stuck with networking stuff, so now I've left it on RH for now, but I've got some mates coming round on saturday evening, so it might be back to Win2K so we can have a bit of a LP!

Cheers

BTW, What exactly happens when you try to go over your Disk Space Limit in Win2K?
