The problem I am facing is: I cannot run DOS Commands like:IPCONFIG, MORE (etc) I have suspected that system32 might have not been added to the PATH, environment variable, but I have checked the PATH environment variable, and my PATH environment variable is s follows:
%SystemRoot%system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%Sy stem32Wbem;What I need to do so that commands like ( IPCONIFIG /ALL) RUNS.When i run the IPCONFIG /ALL command, then the error message which is produced is as follows: 'ipconfig' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.

I cannot access the recovery console to do anything further. also, i do not own an Windows XP Professional CD as the computer came preloaded with it and was a hand-me-down. consequently, i cannot seem to do anything with it. i have gone into the BIOS settings and changed it to boot from cd as i burned a copy of what i thought was a windows xp professional disc (said it was legal to do as long as it was for private use). however, the computer wont boot from the disc, or any disc for that matter.

Another one was: Microsoft Out of Bounds. I have Windows XP Home Edition with all updates.I have ZoneAlarm free and McAffee AntiVirus.Nothing has been detected.

This is so weird.
I go to Run and type CMD enter. You get the dos window right?
Ok, now I type ipconfig. I get a message saying 'ipconfig is not
recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch
file.'.
So I try several other commands and all give me the same error message

Can I somehow save commonly used commands? For example, I have problems with my printer about 1/3 of the time. Microsoft has the fix HERE (Method D), and I want to save that run command into a dropdown menu or something (I've already saved the notepad file to the desktop) so that I don't have to look it up all the time. Is that possible? I know it will be there when I open it, IF I haven't used any other run commands, but I want to make sure it's always available without having to look it up.

I have this login/logoff problem where whenver I log in, it just loggs back off. So I found this site has a solution that uses the xp recovery cd:when i use the copy command, windows tells me "The system cannot find the file specified" So what do I do. Can I somehow copy the files from the windows xp cd to my hard drive, then use the copy command.

I had just given this exec a new computer the day before so I was pretty sure she did not have my pc

connecting to a specific website and contacted my ISP as i was being blocked by someone and still am. I then installed a IP blocker and since have been able to connect. When i contacted the ISP they were getting me to do a heap of things with ipconfig netish ip reset and a few of ipconfig commands. Since ive done all these my home network hasnt been able to work. I have gone back into My Network and done the network wizard again and again I have also reinstalled another network card and still wont work. I have assigned IP address to all computers on the network. On all other computers you can see everyones computer with the exception of the host. The host computer cant been seen on the network and cant access any other computer as well. The internet wont work on any other computer either but the host internet works. i have another bootable HDD and booted from it and everything works fine.

System recently began taking a long time to load, and to execute commands.. Also some unusual responses. Slow to load browsers. Whether I.E., Chrome or Firefox. When logged onto the internet, responses, page changes and other commands are very fast, and links connect with very little delay. The problem is with trying to start up and log on, and do other work on the system. Sloooow. Also I have Skype 4.0 installed, and wanted to Uninstall it in order to add the latest Skype. However when I try to uninstall via Add/Remove in Control Panel I get an Error message " Network Error occurred while trying to read file C:\WindowsinstallerSkype.msi" I get this even if I try to install the new Skype over the old (4.0). What seems to be the problem?
