There was also a way to bring up a command prompt in XP under SYSTEM context by using the at.exe command.
at [time] /interactive cmd.exe -> Wait up to the time you set and volia. You have a command prompt under system context. Has come in handy for testing scripts and file permissions etc that require SYSTEM. -

That will remove devices that are no longer connected, but still have drivers installed on the system. If I understand the blog post correctly, these were showing up as active in Device Manager. He would uninstall them through Device Manager, but they would come back as active when rebooted.CERTS: VCDX #110 / VCAP-DCA #500 (v5 & 4) / VCAP-DCD #10(v5 & 4) / VCP 5 & 4 / EMCISA / MCSE 2003 / MCTS: Vista / CCNA / CCENT / Security+ / Network+ / Project+ / CIW Database Design Specialist, Professional, Associate
