Solve : Windows XP Recovery?

Answer»

I am trying to Recovery Windows XP and I don't know what to PUT in for the "Which Windows Installation WOULD you like to log on to" question.

This is what my screen is saying.

     After you start the Windows Recovery CONSOLE, you receive the following message:
     Microsoft Windows(R) Recovery Console

     The Recovery Console provides system repair and recovery functionality.
     Type EXIT to quit the Recovery Console and restart the computer.

     1: C:\WINDOWS

     Which Windows Installation would you like to log on to
     (To cancel, press ENTER)?

Is there anyone who would like to HELP?
The only choice there is 1 so you would have to choose that.

Do you have need to do a repair installation or format the drive and reinstall Windows all over again? If the latter, you do not do this in the recovery console.I am going to start with the repair installation first.  The I will do a clean reformat.  Does that sound right?Thank you for getting me past the first step, now... it gives me c prompt and says windows in a DOS format.  I hit enter but nothing happened.  Any ideas?Have a read here if you want to do a repair install:

You do NOT need to do this first if your unltimate goal is a full format and reinstall.
