Switches /I Specifies that MSD not initially detect hardware. Use the /I switch if you are having problems starting MSD or if MSD is not running properly. /F[drive:][path]filename Prompts you for name, company, address, country, phone number, and comments, then writes a complete MSD report to the file you specify. /P[drive:][path]filename Writes a complete MSD report to the file you specify, without prompting you for information. /S[drive:][path][filename] Writes a summary MSD report to the file you specify, without prompting you for information.
