RE: [DUG]: Rebooting computer from dos prompt

[Stacey Verner]

In dos there is a file called reeboot.com or restart.com which reboots the machine when executed. You will find this on a windows** recovery disk.   This will reeboot if you are in dos, but I think it only closes the command window when using a dos window.   Hopefully that will help.   Stacey  -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Coulter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 17 January 2000 20:49 To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Subject: [DUG]: Rebooting computer from dos prompt Hi all.   Can anyone tell me how to reboot a computer from a dos prompt in code??
