I removed some software using a third party uninstaller. Next time I
started up the system, Windows would not boot. The error message
said that it could not find c:\windows\system32\config\SYSTEM.
Having recently run a system maintenance utility, I had a SYSTEM.bak
in the config folder, so I deleted the bad SYSTEM file and renamed
the .bak file to SYSTEM. Now, I can boot into Safe mode, but I still
get a BLUE SCREEN when booting into Normal mode.
Any suggestions to get Windows to boot normally, without losing my
registry settings? I have over 70 programs installed... it would
take weeks to redo everything.
Experienced help appreciated!
