Hi TFT,
It sounds to me like you've successfully started the Recovery
Console.......if you key in the correct password (or hit ENTER/Return key if
no password was set up for Administrator account) then you will be at the C:
\Windows prompt (or whichever drive letter corresponds to the drive on which
WINXP was installed). At the C:\Windows prompt, you would key in the
commands that you want to perform in Recovery Console. There is a listing of
available commands here:
