It's surprising what you can learn using a forward slash and a question mark in CMD Prompt. There's a wealth of information in there, with directions on how to use it, if we aren't afraid to ask. I'm sure most of us have no idea what's hidden inside Windows in places like this. We ought to familiarize ourselves with it, because it can solve problems for us if we know how to use it.
The above is just an example of what I mean. Ask a question, get an answer, and then use that to solve a problem. Works for me... and incidentally, the guy who wrote the list of these commands and their meanings made a mistake in saying that the Bootsect command is only available from the Command Prompt during System Recovery Operations. As you can see, I've just used it, and I'm not in recovery from anything except a bad case of boredom... so if you think your Boot Manager or Master Boot Record needs a tune-up, feel free.
