I know this can be done in Win95 and 98 by going to system info, but in Win2k this isn't so. In WinXP it can be seen by going to a command prompt and typing "system info"

How can I tell how long a computer with Windows 2000 Pro has been turned on?

It's all good ^_^

I found it once but don't remember where it is. Now I just use SiSoft Sandra and its under windows information.

Is your system stable enough you'd run your own life support on it? ---mine is. Soyo KT333 + AXP 1900+

like... ummmmm.... I don't think you got what I said.

open up a DOS window, and type:

uptime

It's actually the name of the utility. i kid you not. That will give you what you want. Get it?

Ah, I thought you were asking what it meant. It was so simple, it was difficult.

Thanks a bunch

I opened up a command prompt window on my 2000 computer and typed "uptime" and got:

'uptime' is not recognized as an
operable program or batch file.



It's all good ^_^

I don't have this on any of my systems either. Is this something that needs to be manually pulled off the CD?

i downloaded a small program called, strangely enough "uptime.exe" sits in your task tray, and u can have it somewhere on your desktop. It also can keep track if you hibernate your system too.

Open up task manager (ctrl-alt-del -> task manager or right-click task bar -> task manager). The cpu time of system idle process.

Hi from any of the Windows server 2003 system - go to command prompt and type the below command.

systeminof /S System (where system is remote windows 2000 server FQDN name)

you will get the system information of the remote windows 2000 server.

Instead of that you may use
"net statistics server" command on the Windows 2000 box.
