MS Article 823614 - missing windows\system32\config\system

G

Guest

Per MS Article 823614 ....
1) Load the 6 diskettes to enter into Recovery Console
2) in command prompt TYPE...
CD C:\Windows\System32\Config
REN system system.old
COPY C:\Windows\Repair\system

3) AND the "system" file was NOT to be found
4) so used the "system.bak" file and now comes up a message pertaining to:
"trying to update the password return status indicates the value to update the password is not correct"
5) knowing this "...bak" file was not correct, have reversed troubleshooting back to original
"Windows could not start because the C:\windows\system32\config\system file is missing or corrupt"

Does anyone have another troubleshooting angle to this article ?

thank you
