Help saving my work XP SP2 setup !!
After some reboot/poower off attemts nothing changed.
Safe mode worked ok. i tried two different restore points with no effect.
Then i tried to unload startup by ms config. Nothing changed again.
Then i tried "sfc /scannow" from safe mode, it wouldn't execute it.
Then i proceeded to repair installation from the windows XP2 setup cd. After the first restart it got frozen again in the middle of the process, somewhere in the "installing windows" screen...
after that when i reboot it, it shows "restarting setup ......" even sometimes loads the windows logo with the blue progress bar but then frozes again on a black screen with a cursor
Trying safe mode things are different : reaches the point with the "safe mode" indication on the four corners and a cursor appears but freezes there ....
Trying the repair again , now the setup cd cant find the windows installation anymore .......
ANy hellp highly appreciated ...
If at least could make the setup cd to find / recognise the windows installation again ....
