Hi:
I have a serious system crash problem and hope someone can really help me.
My Windows XP in IBM R40 NB crashed the other day for reasons unknown.
When I rebooted the system, it showed a screen saying, the previous shut
down was not normal and requires me to select from a series of options: Safe
Mode,..., Normal boot.
But whatever option I selected, the boot cannot be completed and the system
will hang there.
I tried "Safe Mode" also, and it tells me that "System" file in
System32\Config is corrupted, and I shall use CD to repair it.
I tried to use original XP CD to repair but unsuccessful.
Finally, I installed another copy in another directory (C:\Windows1) and I
can see all files in C drive and the original system file in
C:\Windows\System32\Config
Can anyone help me to restore the original copy (and uninstall the new one
afterward)?
PS: I do not have emergency recovery disk since IBM R40 does not have floppy
disk.
Thanks so much.
Sincerely
John
