Hello again;
I was able to get to past the pciide.sys corrupted problem and get into
Recovery console. I copied the following files:
ntoskrnl.ex_ to c:\windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe
user32.dl_ to c:\windows\system32\user32.dll
kernel32.dl_ to c:\windows\system32\kernel32.dll
THEN as instructed by tour tech note copied:
atapi.sy_ to c:\windows\system32\drivers\atapi.sys
intelide.sy_ to c:\windows\system32\drivers\intelide.sys
pciide.sy_ to c:\windows\system32\drivers\pciide.sys
HOWEVER: I got a 'File could not be copied' error message on:
pciidex.sy_ to c:\windows\system32\drivers\pciidex.sys
ALSO: on the initial installation attempt from my slipstreamed XP Pro-SP2 CD
I got the following errors that the file could not be copied on four files:
ntshared.chm
oembios.bin
pciidex.sys
packager.exe
I then attempted to copy these files while still in Recovery Console and got
the error message "File could not be copied" after the "Overwrite file (Yes,
No, All)
I modified the boot.ini to:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect
And while still in Recovery Console was able to overwrite the existing
Boot.ini file.
I entered EXIT, and got the initial Windows Start Up Screen, then the system
hung again, blank screen, arrow pointer displayed and active.
There must be something wrong with my slipstream XP-SP2 CD that will not
recognize ntshared.chm, oembios.bin, pciidex.sys, and packager.exe and by
proceeding with the installation has screwed up the complete Win XP-PRO SP2
install?!
Please tell me that there is a way to start anew without having to reformat
my entire partition and starting over.
Thanks in Advance;
