Hi again bros. Well, my DOS doesn´t work anymore. I get to cmd command on the RUN link, if I make a ping, netstat or any other command who needs to send a package, my DOS woun´t respond anymore. It only wotk if I want to create a file or directory, or any other thing witch doesn´t need to send anything via net. Do I had change something ? Anything wrong with my net ? Thanks Don´t freak out until you know the facts...Relax...!

There is NO DOS in WIN2K or WINXP. Different file handling system called NTFS best of luck Frank :

ccfrank I have a WinXP sp2 on NTFS partition, it a cmd.exe file , there is where I can+t run it. Some help ? Thanks Don´t freak out until you know the facts...Relax...!

>>my DOS woun´t respond anymore What does this mean? You open a command prompt window, type PING, and....what happens? ccfrank: >>There is NO DOS in WIN2K or WINXP Semantics. Replace "DOS" with "command line", which is obviously what the original poster is referring to, and your objection becomes irrelevant. >>Different file handling system called NTFS What exactly does this have to do with DOS? ;)

Right click My Computer and select Properties, Advanced tab, Environment Variables button to see if it shows: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 where all of the executables are located. or go to Start, Run, cmd and then type in: path to see if it appears there. HTH Bryan

ok jimminy: If I type ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx it just do nothing, even if I use ctrl+C it does not kill or cancel the process, using ipconfig, it does not show me my address too, but as a refrerence it works 2 weeks ago, I guees I changed something without remembering it, but it is rare. Bryco: The executables does appears on the system32 path. What could it be ? Don´t freak out until you know the facts...Relax...!
