Solve : non(?)-msdos commands? |
|
Answer» there seems to be some DOS(?) commands which are not dos (or are they?), like why these commands don't show up in the regular dos command lists What command lists are you referring to? Commands are not specific to DOS but to the shell program and the technology provided by each Windows VERSION. Some of the newer commands have no meaning in older versions of Windows (commands relating to Active Directory for instance). Note: the shell program is different for Win9x machines and NT machines. What OS are you referring to? Hi, I run win98se. I went to a few sites which specialize in dos, and looked up their lists of dos commands. I have, on occasion, used commands like ping, tracert and netstat, and I couldn't find these commands in the dos command lists that I have seen recently. My cable connection sometimes "dies", and I have to reboot windows to get it going again. So I've been looking around for a command I could run in the Run utility to re-connect instead of having to reboot. Is there such a command? Check out Win98 Commands. Scroll down to Chapter 7. If you have questions on how to run any command, type commandname /? at a prompt. Need more info about your network. When the connection "dies" what do the LIGHTS on the modem or hub or router or switch look like? Sometimes just unplugging the device, waiting 30 seconds, then repowering will take care of this. This works more often than not. You shouldn't have to boot the PC. Not sure about Win98, but if you have a connection icon in the system tray, right click and choose the repair option. Thanks for the help I will investigate what you suggest. |
