Hmm...
I tried it with DIR

C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools>.\ntimer.exe dir CreateProcess(dir) failed 2

C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools>

The problem was that DIR is a builtin.
This works:

C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools>.\ntimer.exe cmd /c dir  Volume in drive C has no label.
 Volume Serial Number is C041-CD44

 Directory of C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools

12/01/2006  11:31 AM    <DIR>          .
12/01/2006  11:31 AM    <DIR>          ..
04/18/2003  06:05 PM            39,424 acctinfo.dll
...
04/18/2003  06:05 PM            28,087 wlbs_rc.dll
             188 File(s)     19,090,155 bytes
               2 Dir(s)  20,026,626,048 bytes free

ContextSwitches - 12543
First level fills = 0
Second level fills = 0

ETime( 0:00:00.450 ) UTime( 0:00:00.020 ) KTime( 0:00:00.010 ) ITime( 0:00:00.190 )

C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools>

Thanks Mark.
