re: Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \winnt\system32\config\SYSTEMced Tuesday, February 17, 2004 at 4:39 pm Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by nonesuch (1 messages posted) Hmm... might be possible to use NT Password Recovery floppy to reset admin password, then use the recovery console to do the steps others have mentioned here. I've used the NT Password Recovery floppy about 4 times, and it never lets me CHANGE passwords, but will let me reset them to null if lost/forgotten. See http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/ for the utility. On Monday, September 22, 2003 at 11:30 am, Umang wrote: >I am having a problem booting Windows because that file is missing.
