I start my windows XP professional laptop and by default I see the cmd
window popping up and it goes after a while. Can you give me a fix to
turn this off so that I do not see this cmd window on start of machine?

Thanks.

Well this doesn't happen in a default installation of Windows XP, so the
'fix' is to figure out what you have running at start-up, and isolate which
one of these is responsible and why.

Do you have a bat file scheduled or in the startup folder.

You better check your system for "Schedule Tasks" or Spyware / Malwares and
Viruses. May be your computer is infected.

I was repairing when of my cousin's laptop and he was also getting those CMD
windows.

Hope this helps, let us know.
