after I write cmd, and enter, the error message says "cannotfind the file cmd (or one of its components).Make sure the path an file name arecorrect and that all required libraries are avaliable."

I can enter lisconfig and the rum command will work.
Whatcha think?

Thanks for responding.

Right click the taskbar, click task manager, click file, new task, type sfc /scannow (with the space) and then press enter

Upon right clicking, there is no task manager. Running win 98

[jaxisland]

try going to run then typing command instead of cmd

Since it says XP under your name, we didn't know you were referring to a Win98 machine. How do you connect to the internet? Has this machine ever connected before? By giving us as much info as possible, we are better able to help.
