If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options When attempting to run the command prompt, I am given another window that
states:
(16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem)
C:\WINDOWS\System32\command.com
C:\PROGRA~1\Symantec\S32EVNT1.DLL. An installable Virtual Device Driver
failed DII initialization. Choose 'Close' to terminate the applications.
I click close, and the program closes.
I click ignore, and the prompt does not recognize your given commands. Advice
Thanks so much for your help thus far!
