I know there is someone out in home brew land who can help me since you guys seem to have an answer to any problem. My fiancees computer has just crapped out on him. He is a musician and may have just lost his last years work. Anyway, this is what is happening
It will not boot regularly or in safe mode. When you try it comes up with an error saying load needed DLLs for kernel. He has tried booting using the windows CD, but the option to repair the installation is not there. Have tried performing a manual restore of the Windows XP registry ad well as trying to fix the boot files.
Not sure what else can be done. In order to save the files we are thinking of getting another hard drive to install a fresh copy of windows and use the old hard drive as a secondary. Not sure if that will work or not.
Any ideas?
