Solve : Shutdown Command to use in DOS?

1.	Solve : Shutdown Command to use in DOS?
Answer» I don't see how that enters into the mix at all. If I'm trying to shut down my PC in DOS, why would I want to TRY to ping something? Anyway, my SOFTWARE GURU came thru for me and I have just downloaded the "Shutdown.com" program in a zip file, along with full documentation. I'll only post the link when I've had time to fully test the program. Thanks all! Shadow Quote from: TheShadow on April 29, 2009, 08:06:14 PM I don't see how that enters into the mix at all.

Shadow The ping makes the batch WAIT for one second before continuing...just incase your program takes a bit of time to close.Well, I just finished testing the DOS Shutdown program and it works a treat. I'll post the link when I have more time to upload the zip file to my FTP Server. Probably tomorrow.

Shadow You can just upload the zip here...Well, I just cleaned up the Instruction text file and re-compressed the files into a self extracting zip file, using 7Zip. The file "Shutdown DOS.exe" can be downloaded here: http://www.box.net/shared/fcc6cam8x8 I thank everyone who has tried to help me with this little problem. Cheers Mates! Shadow Thanx again Shadow !Did Shadow ever consider a hybrid method? Perhaps Hardware modification and a small bit of software to force a machine to shut down could do the JOB. The DOS Shutdown.com program works a treat. Nothing else is required. Try it.........you'll like it.
