Windows XP forum: PLEASE HELP: CANT GET IN TO WINDOWS#####

i clicked on the link that you provided and there are lots of files...which one do i have to download?? thanks.


Also:

1. Last Known Configuration That Worked

THIS DOENST WORK EITHER...IT RESTARTS AND COMES BACK TO THE SAME SCREEN

2. Boot with XP CD, follow prompts for Windows Repair.
Use only the orginal install XP CD any other installiton CD will lock you out of the system and a clean re-install will have to be preformed.

I dont have the original xp cd from microsift...but my friend gave me a burned copy...he said it works like original...he said its something like iso...would it work?


thanks for the replay...

who is bop p...

also, i went to the link that you gave me for knoppix...there are lots of files...which one do i download?

one mor thing

how would i be able to install linux withoug access to cd rom....would it read the cd rom from outside?

and if i manage to install linux and get it in...do you think the problem would be saved if i run the erndt.exe from my computer?

i dont know much about restoring the register of windows.
but if u have a secordary disk drive in your system i would make it a master and reinstall winxp from scratch.
u probably thought of that before i know its time consuming. but its an option.

anyone going to help?

Yes, No, Maybe.......

Not trying to be nasty or mean. But you must take some responsibilty in correcting your issue. Questions like ''I have downloaded Knoppix, do I burn it to a CD'' will not get you any help. Questions that clarify your thoughts will bring Help.

So your next step would be to burn Knoppix to a Disk. Using Nero as an example your will burn a Disk Image or Saved Project.

Then place CD in damaged system and boot. At desktop open the help file and read on how to copy to a CD.

ok i burned the knopix....i rebooted my computer with the knopix cd in cd rom drive....but nothing happens....it goes to teh screen wher it says

start windows in safe mode
sfe mode with networking
start windowns in normal mode
start with last worked settings
etc....

none of teh above option works because when i choose anyone of them, it restarts and comes back the same screen...

how do i make the computer read the knopix cd?

thanks.

ok i am going to try that now...i will be back in a bit and let you know what happened

If you've used Nero, it will be easy.
