of course, you know that the systeminfo command only works if you have Windows XP Professional, and not in the HOME Edition. The link to which fastcobra gave you is for a really neat console utility called uptime.exe which has some neat switches to use with it.

if you want a graphical based program to tell you of your uptime, then go and visit this site:

http://rm-f.net/~zdv/code/uptime.html

There, you can download a great little win32 program called UPTIME.EXE and easily see your uptime as well. Either program is good, however, one is a console program while the other is a graphical program.

hope this helps you out.... and enjoy :)

ps (let us know which one you use... personally, i use both ;) )

also if you've got norton utilities installed, system doctor can display a sensor giving you continous real uptime!

If you have a network connected to broadband you could just use the uptime on the network. I find that it's accurate to within +/- a min. or so.
