I have a problem that maybe you guys could help me with.  I accidentally 	removed the Command.Com program on my hard drive along with most of the other	programs to other directories (yeah, I know...real stupid!).  I then rebooted	my system, and of course the hard drive wouldn't initialize, and when I 	booted up dos on disk, it couldn't access the C: drive.  My question is, is 	there any way to regain access to the hard drive without reformatting it and	therefore losing everything in there?  I thought the s






olution might be in 	changing partitions, but I'm not very well versed in my DOS usage.  As a matter
of fact, I'm pretty illiterate at the whole thing.  So, if anyone could help	me, I'd greatly appreciate it.  If you send an explanation, make it relatively
easy to understand, because like I said, I'm kind of illiterate in this area.
Thanks a million!
