re: Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \winnt\system32\config\SYSTEMced Thursday, March 13, 2003 at 11:36 am Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Chad (1 messages posted) I have followed this step and my computer locked up and I had to rebbot. When I went to run these steps again, the ren system system.old wouldn't work, it said it couldn't find it. Also I am using a windows XP professional recover console, I don't have a windows 2000 pro disk to use because it is OEM. This sucks. Any ideas here?
