The use of PING is to simulate SLEEP.. Older OS installations did not include SLEEP.EXE as part of them.

So.. With:
@Ping 127.0.0.1 -n 1 -w 1000 > nul

It is telling PING to PING 127.0.0.1 (localhost)
For one (1) time (-n 1)
And wait 1000 milliseconds (1 second) (-w 1000). Note: If you wanted to wait say 5 seconds, change the -n 1 to be -n 5 and it will wait 5 iterations of 1000 milliseconds and is 5 seconds.. Sorry about being windy here.
> nul and this redirects the screen output to nul (suppress the output)

HTH,

Kent

Excellent Kent! Can you elaborate on your use of ping here?

You can use the PE version of Windows – http://ubcd4win.com/
And you can use EASEUS Partition Master

In place of the GParted.. GParted will still work, but Ultimate Boot CD for Windows and the Partition Master can be used in place of GParted.

Thank you,

Kent
