So then I tried this:
You’ll need to manually restore some files again to the version that came with your Windows installation DVD. Use the Windows DVD to boot into repair mode and restore these files using the command prompt:
In your “\Windows\System32\” folder, restore just these files:
hal.dll
ntoskrnl.exe (You shouldn’t need to replace it because it’s not really corrupted.)
ntkrnlpa.exe (Same as ntoskrnl.exe. Try booting without replacing them first)
And in your “\Windows\System32\Drivers” folder, restore these:
acpi.sys
msisadrv.sys
pci.sys
volmgr.sys
volsnap.sys
disk.sys
But of course this didn't fix anything. Now on booting it says 'windows couldn't start....load needed dlls'. Oh, goodie. This is the same as last time, meaning I'm likely going to have to re-install.....
Scifi frauds. SF illuminates.
