cannot get my computer to boot the message is "windows
could not start because the following file is missing or
corrupt system32\Drivers\pci.sys you can attempt to
repair this file by starting windows setup using original
setup cd select 'r' at first screen", when i attempt this
i get error messages there also, such as
"the file acpi.sys is corrupted press any key to
continue" and after hitting any key the message "setup
failed press any key to restart your computer".
if i let it run thru again this message pops up "file
setup.sys could not be loaded error code is 4"
Additionally i have 2 removable harddrives and have tried
to boot from either to get it going, but only 1 runs XP
the other has 98 on it could i have messed up something
there using the xp cd for both?
