Needing help..

Bah I'm a dummy, try chkdsk /? or just ? or /help or help
You get the idea

Yeah, man. This sucks when you have a bootlegged version of Windows SP2. You can't update any drivers whatsoever.

Another thing you can do is replace that system file with one from the wincd (dont over write it, change the name to system_old), boot the pc and do a system restore.

Well right now I'm running C:\>chkdsk /r. What do you mean by replacing the system file with the one on the Window's CD? Agh, wheres Apokalipse, b1gapl, and the others when you need them!

 

[QuaziBee]

Haha, on the Win CD there is an i386 folder, in there is a spare 'system' file. its part of your registry so if you copy that into your windows folder everything is going to be screwy, but it will start up.

Go ahead and throw me an AIM message if you want to.

Ah thanks for your help QuaziBee. I'm just going to reformat my computer. Only thing that is important was the music.

 

[QuaziBee]

Reformatting is always a last resort for me. There is always a way, A system restore could be all you need, if it was turned on, if we can get it to that.

Well someone just brought up this thread. http://www.techist.com/forums/f77/system32-file-missing-corrupt-139238/

And I was like oh my god. Loll, well formatting is easier. This time, I'm creating 2 partitions so that when the partition with my OS is corrupted, I'll just reformat that partition instead of reformatting everything like what I'm doing right now.
