Yea i finally worked it out after freakin out
it has to do with the path in your environment variables somethin ferked mine up mustv be adware.
Since ipconfig works from c:\windows\system32 if u try ipconfig from that directory in ur cmd prompt ipconfig will work.
but anyway this is what i did worked 100%
- right click on my computer
- select advanced tab
- select environment variables
edit path
so it only reads PATH=C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32;C:\WINDOWS
hope that helps
