re: problems with boot up - system32\config\system Thursday, October 18, 2007 at 12:19 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by cj (3 messages posted) Thanks for your advice - I did what you said - downloaded the floppies, got the PC to boot from floppy and when I inserted disk 1 it read it and then just displayed the same error it had before ! ? Any ideas - is there an alternative boot disk that just leads me straight into Dos C: prompt and gives me a chance to load the WIndows set up disk into the CD drive and perhaps let me continue from there. Or perhaps even manually try and recover that file ? many thanks On Sunday, October 14, 2007 at 1:37 pm, Rich Kurtz wrote: >Can you boot from a diskette?
