Using win 2000 sp4. when I open a command window and type in "chkdsk" i get
the following response:



C:\>chkdsk
'chkdsk' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\>

a few commonds such as dir and copy work fine but most do not. and
suggestions as to what is happening?

Big Al
 
run "dir /s chkdsk.exe"
run "set path" (to display path information)
determine if the executable is present and it's in the system path

Luckily the dir command is still working :)
