Vista - Command Promt

Hi

I have a Dell Inspiron with Vista Home Premium installed. Whenever I click
on the icon for Command Prompt to do any networking work, the system just
reboots and I loose all the data I have. I am facing this problem for past 15
days or so.

Anybody else with this problem or its just me? Any solutions?

Thanks in advance for the help

Any errors in the event viewer?

Hi
I am not a very techy person, so could not understand much of the content of
the Event Viewer. However I am coping an event which was in the Event Viewer.
Hope you will understand this and help me.

Amit - Reagarding "...Whenever I click on the icon for Command Prompt to do
any networking work...", is this "icon" on the desktop? Is it labeled
"Command Prompt"? What type of "networking work"?

You state "...I am facing this problem for past 15...." - was this same icon
available and functioning in the past?

How about just recreate another command prompt icon by pointing to cmd.exe?
Then try again..

Also install the latest Vista patch!

Hope helps..

Hi

The link is on the Start menu as well as an icon on the desktop. Both do the
same thing...restart the machine.

I use the Command prompt to find the details of the network, also to start
applications which are Java based and they open the Command prompt by default.

Thanks

Amit - afraid I cannot help- am confused - for example you refer to "...The
link ..." - a link, or shortcut, would have differring properties than a
command prompt.
Also "...I use the Command prompt to find the details of the network, also
to start applications which are Java based and they open the Command prompt
by default...."

What program/utility are you running from the prompt (ipconfig, netstat,
etc)? If you start a Java program from a command prompt it is interesting
that the Java program(s) would open another instance of the prompt.

Do you receive any messages or does the compter just reboot?
