Osaisiko joku auttaa? (olen noviisi tietokoneissa) Minulla on ferrari4000 läppäri. Kun yritän käynnistää sitä niin tulee teksti: Windows ei kännistynyt, koska seuraava tiedosto puuttuu tai on viottunut

WINDOWSSYSTEM32CONFIGSYSTEM

koneessa oli alunperin asetettu xp pro, mikä on siinä vieläkin. Ainoa huono puoli on se, että se oli esiasennettu, eli minulla ei ole siihen cd:tä, ainoastaan recovery cd. En haluaisi formatoida konettani, onko jotain millä saisin sen toimimaan, sillälailla että tiedostot säilyvät?

En jaksanu ruveta suomentamaan sen kummemmin mut josset osaa lontoota ni suomennellaan sit enemmän:

this problem occurs when you try to update drivers in the computer..sometimes windows XP cannot update the driver and that corrupts system.ini file as it has a lot of bad entries..Due to this you will get this error mesage..No its not due to virus.its due to an attempt to change system.ini file

Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: WINDOWSSYSTEM32CONFIGSYSTEM

That means the System Registry Hive has become corrupted.

There are two ways to get back up and running. The easy way which doesn't always work, and then there is the hard way.

Easy Way --- Note that this doesn't always work.
When you are booting your system, press the F8 key during the start of the bootup sequence, meaning after it does the Power On Self Test.

Once you press the F8 key, you will be taken to a Menu. Select "Boot Using Last Known Good Configuration".

It will now attempt to load Windows XP using a past set of configuration files.

If that doesn't work, there is the next step....the hard way.

Hard Way
Boot your system with the Windows XP Install CD, let the system boot into the Setup. Once in the Setup, choose to run the Recovery Console.

You will now be presented with a screen similar to good old DOS.

First, we will recover the System Hive.

Now, type in the following commands with pressing Enter after each line.

md tmp
copy C:windowssystem32configsystem C:windowstmpsystem.bak
delete C:windowssystem32configsystem
copy C:windowsrepairsystem C:windowssystem32configsystem

Be very careful when you are typing in these commands, one wrong move, and you have, broken Windows XP.

Also, change the C in the commands to whatever your Windows XP drive letter is.

Attempt to boot the system, if it doesn't boot, get back into the Recovery Console and do the following commands.

md tmp
copy C:windowssystem32configsoftware C:windowstmpsoftware.bak
delete C:windowssystem32configsoftware
copy C:windowsrepairsoftware C:windowssystem32configsoftware
