How do I get a recursive list of files from the command-line?

Monday, June 16, 2008

This is very useful when trying to figure out what files are on a drive. This will provide you with full paths for all the files in and below the directory you run it from.

How do I get a recursive list of files from the command-line?

Use the DOS "dir /A:-D /B /S" command.

HP Pavilion a1600n Drivers

Monday, January 22, 2007

I just got myself an HP Pavilion a1600n Media Center PC. I formatted, got rid of the "recovery partition" and installed Windows XP. Finding the drivers for was a real pain. Basically the thing to remember is that most of the motherboard's components were made by NVIDIA. After installing Windows XP, I realized that I had essentially screwed up in installing a 32-bit OS when a perfectly 64-bit version of XP exists. So I had to find all the drivers again...in 64-bit version. Here's what I found:

64-bit
