CMD prompt

speeDemon

Does anywone know anything cool we could do using command prompt(CMD) in windows XP and Vista..?

I personally found some simple scripts to make the computer restart each time it would open, and there was even one which could reformat the computer...
?Have ou read/made any such scripts? well... post them!

"Net send" when you're in class and bored is a classic one...

You don't need scripts to do that.

Restart can be done with:
shutdown -r -t 01

Format can be done with:
format <drive>

As Stolich pointed out, net send is a classic. If you have a computer that's old enough you can implement a (very) basic chat client in batch files. There's also the classic fork bomb trick, which isn't very useful but is quite cool when you realise what it's doing and why.
