You can use the command prompt of the Recovery Console to copy backup copies of your registry hives to repair corrupted hives. There are several KnowledgeBase articles that describe different scenarios depending on what your error message indicates is wrong. The basic technique is to find the most recent backup copy of the damaged hive (SOFTWARE and SYSTEM are the two most common corruptions) in the NTbackup folder or by extracting a hive from the SVI folder that is created by System Restore. Post back and let us know what error you are trying to fix and we can find you the appropriate KB article with step by step commands for RC. -- Kent W. England, Microsoft MVP for Windows Security |
