Hello.

As you may have seen from a previous post a day or 2 ago, i've recently started playing with java. I'm not sure whats gone on, but since ive installed java it seems my CMD.exe doesnt recognise any commands at all apart from java related ones.

For example "ping" "dir" "net send" "help" (and all the others)

give me a reply message of: "*command here*" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."

Would there be any link between java installation and command prompt usage? Bearing in mind that i've just been doing Console based java.

Thanks a bunch

Regards

Mathew
