Registry Issues

by datawizard . Updated 16 years, 8 months ago

My system was continually going into a blue screen and would not boot up. I managed to get it to boot from the CD, but now I am getting this message:

Windows XP could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM

When I put in my XP CD and go into the recovery console, XP does not find the HD. However if I put in my system recovery CD it finds the HD, but wants to re-partition the drive. Which means all my data would be gone. Not sure how to proceed.
