Assuming you're typing these commands into the Command or Run Window, what are you typing? If you want System Info, systeminfo is not the command/filename. So, that's explains why it's not working.
Life is more painless for those who are brainless.

Systeminfo & tasklist command line works only if you have XP Pro. Don't ask me why - I didn't create XP.

I think that some commands are only available if you have XP Pro.
