SYSTEM_LICENSE_VIOLATION

[Brian]

Earlier today I was working on a computer that had a boot error.

It said that it could not find c:\windows\system32\config\system

It said to install teh system installation disk, and use the recovery console.

I went to the recovery console and did a CHKDSK /R

After about 2 hours it reported that it found and repaired one or more errors

I re-booted the computer and this time it came with the following:

Yadda Yadda...

SYSTEM_LICENSE_VIOLATION

yadda yadda yadda

STOP: 0x0000009a (0x00000002,0xC0000034,0x00000000,0x00000000)

Any idea how to recover from this?
