When I enter my cmd (windows 7) and enter the command ipconfig it gives me the error,
'ipconfig' is not reckognized as an internal or externa command,
operable program or batch file.
I looked at several other posts and all seem to point at that i might have a virus, I dont have my boot disk at hand and need to acess this command please help!

From the secen forums. You need to run it as aelecated command. Here is how you do that.


Type cmd in search


do not hit enter

right click on cmd then run as adminstrator

Put the ipconfig and try.
