how long has my computer been running

If you install a third party program that tells you your uptime, then yes, there is a way to find this info out.
I use Smart Bar XP and it has an option to display uptime. I'm sure there are other programs that do this as well. Search google.
I wonder if there is a way to find out how long I have been running my computer?
Thanks
 
Hi

If you are running XP Pro, type the following from a command prompt, and
have a look at 'System Up Time':

systeminfo

Hi

In a command prompt (Start/Run --> cmd.exe)

net.exe statistics workstation

you will find a "Statistics since <some date time>" at the top.


For WinXP Pro, systeminfo.exe will also give you system up time
(run it in a command prompt):

Carrying that further...

c:> systeminfo | find "System Up Time"

provides a nice, one-line output of uptime. You can place that into a
BAT file if you want to run it frequently.

If you have a NIC and the icon shows on the tray, open it and it will say connect time. Which is about 1 min after you booted.

And if you would like to run it from within Windows,

Start-> Run -> cmd /k systeminfo | find "System Up Time"

or to see all info without losing the first lines,

Start-> Run -> cmd /k systeminfo | more
