Once I located an XP boot disk, took me half an hour to recover the computer. Thanks much and Happy Holidays to all. Is there a way to get rid of the old version? Help please! Unfortunately every command: "No matching files were found" OR "The system cannot the file or directory specified". I have cloned the drive in question and tried this process on the original and the clone with the same results.
Could somebody please help? After the question "Which windows installation would you like to log onto" I have tried 3 and 2 and get "Invalid selection. Got to recovery console. I should point out i've have had a major crash. After i've done this the desktop icons begin slowly to appear.
Now what happens is that every application in startup IE. Browser, Outlook, AVG, and just about everything else comes up with the same error. I have a backup and the errors were all automatically backed up to that as well as this happens on both disks. Now i have managed to go through this above process in safe mode and execute a system restore 3 times now. Always the same errors.
I bit the bullet and decided to do a rtepair install, but you guessed it, repair is not an option. I am trying very hard to get this system up as you can see. I am now determined to get this operating system going again, even if just for the experience rather than the recovery of the data, because it is all accessible from Vista and in duplicate. Also, I have run Chkdsc from recovery.
