REVERT TO A REGISTRY BACKUP
Boot to DOS (using a bootable floppy disk, e.g. from http://www.bootdisk.com) and type the following at the C:\ prompt
-
SCANREG /RESTORE
Note the space before the forward slash in this command.
Follow the on-screen instructions, and try to restore the *oldest* backup of the
registry (they're listed by date) as that will be from before the problem arose.
By default Windows keeps 5 backup copies of the Windows Registry, so that you can
go back 5 days, to before the problem arose.
When an on-screen message tells you that the registry has been successfully restored,
restart the computer normally.
