Ok, so I've had this problem for quite awhile now. I tend to try and ignore it but now that I actually need to use DOS I can't.

A Little Background story.
So I'm trying to start a GTA SA: MP server but I can't simply because the dos window will not stay open. It will load, I can see text and then it closes quickly. I have had this problem with dos for several weeks now. I just can't seem to find out what the problem is.

I am going to post my hijackthis log on here. Please do help!

Thanks In Advance!

Do you double click on the file in explorer or do you type "cmd" without the quotes in the run box ?

[Squashman]

Hijack this logs are better served in the security forum but please answer Fabez's question.

[Smokes_Quantity]

I just click the .exe I do nothing else. I can't open any dos windows or anything related to dos. I've looked on google, and other forums but I can't seem to find my exact problem.

[-Fabez-]

Try pressing Start > Run, then entering "cmd", without the quotes. Press enter and this should give you the command prompt

What exe? cmd.exe or some other executable? You need to be specific to what you are doing or it makes it really hard to help you.

[Smokes_Quantity]

I'm sorry. The Server.exe. I will make sure to explain more.

Ok, when I went to run > then cmd it worked! Now if I can find out why it closes out in explore.

EDIT: I may of possibly found out the problem with the server.exe...
