Hi,
I have a Windows 2000 Pro SP3 workstation that has problems when opening a
DOS windows. For example, if I execute CMD, a DOS windows opens then closes
immediately. If I execute REGEDIT, same thing happens. Ditto for other
applications that operate under DOS (OMNIS et al.). However, Word, Excel and
other 32-bit applications work fine.
REGEDIT works in safe mode. I controlled the registry for the presence of
viruses and it seems ok. Also scanned the workstation for viruses and none
found, even though I have the impression that the registry has suffered.
I installed SP4 (that had to be installed in "safe mode", otherwise the
Service Pack would not install) but the problem is still the sa me.
Any ideas gratefully received.
