| 567125 | 2007-07-09 01:49:00 | not sure when this started to happen but now when I go into Command Prompt and type a command it won't work for example.. if I type ipconfig I'll get "ipconfig" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I'll have to go into the system32 folder before I can get these commands to work not sure how this broke..anyone know a fix? |

| 567126 | 2007-07-09 02:01:00 | Sounds like your path setting has got messed up. Can you do: path from the cmd prompt and tell us what it says? Another way to check is: Control Panel - System - Advanced - Environment Variables |

| 567128 | 2007-07-09 04:46:00 | How do you get to your Command Prompt? Start > Run > cmd ? | FoxyMX (5) | ||

| 567130 | 2007-07-09 08:59:00 | Do commands work though in command.com? (Start > Run > "command") Cheers :) |

| 567131 | 2007-07-09 10:39:00 | nope doesn't work if I use command.com either | heni72847 (1166) | ||
| 567132 | 2007-07-10 04:31:00 | nope doesn't work if I use command.com either That shouldn't work ..... NO harm was intenationally meant to cmd.com in the authoring of this reply unless you created a redirect to cmd.com (dont ask) or renamed cmd.com Which would cause all sorts of headaches for your system, xp uses cmd as it DOS emulator. |

| 567133 | 2007-07-10 11:15:00 | command.com shouldn't work? I tried on my other machine where everything works.. and if I run ipconfig or netstat etc it works fine under both cmd AND command |
