Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



Try replacing command.com from your install CD-Rom.

expand E:\I386\command.co_ %systemroot%\system32\command.com
would expand a new copy to the \system32 directory.

Generally to start the 32 bit command interpreter;
Start|Run|cmd.exe
