Thanks for the info. Tried to copy the file from the XP
Click to expand...
Recovery Console and basically getting a message that
access in denied, file not found, etc. In researching I
did find that ther are 4 Reovery Console rules to work in
recovery. I checked to see if all were set to the
rules. One area "AllowRemovableMedia" was set at False
and should be True. Could this be a problem? If so, how
is it changed? Other research is leading to a problem
with the boot.ini file. I'm unable to access windows, so
all repairs are to be in DOS. Any advice would be
appreciated! Thanks.
