SUMMARY

WINMSDP.EXE is a utility written to be spawned by the WINMSD.EXE GUI application for reporting purposes. The WINMSD.EXE program spawns the WINMSDP.EXE utility with the /A switch (Print All Settings).

You can also execute the WINMSDP.EXE program from the command line. If you run the utility, the following menu appears:

C:\winnt\system32>winmsdp.exe

/A Print All Settings
/O OsVer
/D Drives
/S Services
/R Drivers
/M Memory
/I Interrupt Resources
/Y Memory Resources
/P Port Resources
/U DMA Resources
/W Hardware
/E Environment
/N Network

Each of the switches (except /A and /N) corresponds to a particular section of the MSDRPT.TXT file.

The first time WINMSDP.EXE is run, the following message is displayed:

C:\winnt\system32>winmsdp /n Generating WinMSD Report of your system .... WinMSD has saved your system report in msdrpt.TXT

The next time WINMSDP.EXE is run, it saves the previous MSDRPT.TXT file as a file named MSDRPT00.TXT (and so on). For example:

C:\winnt\system32>winmsdp /n
Generating WinMSD Report of your system...

backed up your previous MSDRPT.TXT file to: MSDRPT00.TXT

WinMSD has saved your current system report in MSDRPT.TXT

The /N parameter generates a report of the network parameters listed in the Windows NT Registry database. This report contains valuable information for PSS when diagnosing network-related problems.

NOTE: The /N switch is not used if you use the /A switch; these switches must be used separately.

The report appears as follows:
