Solve : Emergency Repair Disk?

Answer» <html><body><p>Is it possible to make a ERD from one Windows 2000 computer and use it to recover another 2000 machine? <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/short-642706" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SHORT">SHORT</a> Story: Used a tool that modified the registry, upon reboot I got a nice, shiny Blue Screen. All Googling points to a (surprise!) registry <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/error-25548" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ERROR">ERROR</a>. No ERD was created for the machine, so I thought it might work if I used the 2k 'puter next to it. I've got a 2k upgrade CD that I'm starting up with.<br/><br/>Also, is their a difference between an Emergency Repair Disk and an Emergency Recovery Disk? I'm getting conflicting reports.<br/><br/>Thanks.<br/><br/><br/>-Oober<br/><br/>[highlight]EDIT: Quick Update. The <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/first-461760" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FIRST">FIRST</a> ERD I created (the one that errored out) copied the registry onto the disk. On a whim I made a second <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/attempt-887550" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ATTEMPT">ATTEMPT</a>, this time choosing not to copy the registry. This time the disk worked on the erring computer... sort of. It went through the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/motions-1104155" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MOTIONS">MOTIONS</a> of repairing the files, but the system still crashes on kernel load. Same registry related error. Rats. I need a clean registry, but when I copy it to a disk, Setup on the crashed machine won't accept it.[/highlight]A little light reading for you, I hope it helps.<br/><a href="https://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000pro/support/whattodo.mspx#ELAA">http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000pro/support/whattodo.mspx#ELAA</a></p></body></html>
