My computer froze while playing a game, causing it to shut down. The next day, I tried to boot and it wouldn't begin to load Win XP. I got a message that there was a missing or corrupt file C:\Windows\system32\config\system. It also suggested that I try the repair console to repair the file. I tried that, but not sure what to do. I see commands for FIXMBR and FIXBOOT, but i dont know if that's what I need to use. I can't figure out how to "repair" an individual file. Could I copy that same file from another computer of mine (with Win XP) and use that?
If anyone has suggestions, i would appreciate it greatly. I don't want to have to reinstall Win XP and lose all my programs I have installed and set up.
Thanks,
Brian
