Re: XP command prompt

To get to the command prompt, open the start menu and click 'run.' In the text box, type 'cmd'.

If that doesn't work, then consider that you may have a virus, or spyware that is preventing it, so you should scan for them; also, you could have a corrupted file.

Re: XP command prompt

Actually. CMD is different than command prompt. But that's a good thing. CMD is a more actual "DOS Emulation Environment". Where as Command Prompt has limited abilities.

But you're probably looking at a virus
