Hey, sorry for bringing up such an old thread, But if i recall correctly this was patched. I tried it on my NT machine at work. But anyway, how the hell does MS manage to get a computer to reboot from a \n? hahaha

This work for you guys? I tried it on Windows NT (sp5), XP (sp0) with no luck. But I do recall trying it ages ago and it working.
