Hey guys, I seem to be having a problem with my current Windows and I was wondering if someone here would be able to help me out.
I get the following error when I try to boot:
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM
You can attempt to repair this file by starting Windows Setup using the original Setup CD-ROM.
Select 'r' at the first screet to start repair.
I've tried this and even attempted to reformat. What happens is when I press to set up windows, its on the blue screen and on the bottom, it says "Searching for previous versions of Microsoft Windows" but it just hangs/freezes there and doesn't go anywhere after that. I've tried the recovery console as well where it says to select which operating system, I press 1, and then Enter but nothing happens after that as well. I'm really stumped on this one, so if someone here could help, I'd really appreciate it.
