problem using winnt.exe to install recovery console? (rather than winnt32.exe)

T

Thorsten Indra

Hi there,
I wanted to install the recovery console from the win xp
pro cd, and accidentally used the command d:\i386
\winnt.exe /cmdcons, rather than the winnt32.exe file...

A DOS window popped up, the hdd was working for a moment.
And then I re-ran the correct command syntax.

Could this error in any way mess up my otherwise
beautiful new and clean installation of XP Pro?

Anybody who could help clarify what my error may have
caused?
Any qualified advice would be appreciated, so I could
have some piece of mind back.
Thanx,
Thorsten

You should be fine - winnt.exe detects that it's running
from inside Windows and doesn't do anything.
