E.g. "Cannot load, missing or corrupt system32configsystem " message at boot. Even if you have another operating system installed, you cannot reload your backup to the registry. If you have a second WinXp installation, you should try mounting the corrupt reg archive (system, software, etc.....) and import your backup there. But this is risky. <br>If you do not have SP2 installed (on XP), you should use ERUNT for XP and 2000. That's the best utility for that.<br><br>Note: Windows has a backup utility that can backup registry archive files.<br>These can be found in "WindowsSystem32config"WinGeekThu, 14 Apr 2005 05:33:35 -0000
