How do you get a C:\ prompt in Windows XP?
Thanks for your tips. When I type C:\ I get the following message 'C:\' is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Any other suggestions?

Re: How do you get a C:\ prompt in Windows XP?
Hi, not sure what you're trying to do. If you're trying to get to C:\, you have to do it in two steps: 1. set your default device to c: C: 2. set your directory to the top level \: cd \ you should now be in the C:\ directory If you're simply trying to get a command prompt, then just use start-run and enter cmd.exe for an XP command window or start-run and enter command.com for a DOS prompt. -T Ronin Quigley wrote: Thanks for your tips.
