Answer» After reinstalling windows XP on my computer, the following message came up:
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM
I try using the windows CD to repair it but it keeps freezing up on SETUP screen when its loading.
What should i do?
Boot to your CD and select Recovery Console.
Type the following:
REN C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM SYSTEM.OLD
COPY C:\WINDOWS\REPAIR\SYSTEM C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIGI can't get into windows setup, that's the problem. I keep freezing on the blue screen i posted above. Thanks for replying. Borrow another XP CD...the versions have to match though...And sorry - you clearly said you couldn't get into setup & I told you to boot to setup anyway. My error.What was the REASON for reinstalling, to start with?
It may be bad CD, as patio said, or you have some hardware problem (HD, RAM).
