    Hey do you guys know why when you type in ipconfig at the run command prompt it flashes the screen for a second then goes away? I am running this on a new laptop. I remember on my old desktop I had the same problem. In the beginning would run fine but later on it would just flash the screen for a second like its doing now.

    Found this with a Google Search and it worked for me and i had the same problem as you

    If you want to use it you first need to open a command prompt using the
    following steps:

    -Click on Start
    -Click on Run
    -Type cmd and press enter

    Now you can type ipconfig without it all disappearing
