OS got 'hosed' by someone, to remain nameless, who cycled the power to my PC while it was booting. Message says the config file was corrupted during load of windows. Says to boot from cd useing OS disc. Booting from cd gives BSD after loading setup with Stop error message. Have read the MS docs relating to problem, but no fix. Have dual bios, but get same error even when useing it. After three hrs of reading docs and trying suggestions, no go. Can not get to the install, reinstall, or repair options on cd. Yes bios is set to boot from cd.

Thanks, but I have read those instructions before. I never get to the "Welcome to Setup" screen, I get the BSD instead with stop message. I am useing a Microsoft OEM cd. I built this system my self.
