Windows XP Pro: Boot Recovey Console
I have an IBM R51 Laptop. I am not able to boot to Windows. I don't have a Windows XP Pro disk, not sure if it shipped with one or not. I would like to access the Windows recovery console to attempt a repair of the Window XP Pro system, I can boot from my CD rom, but I don't have a floppy drive. The preinstalled recovery tools on the IBM R51 will reinstall XP and the other preinstalled software and wipe out the exiting hard drive , but there is no option to repair XP. How can I boot from my CD drive and repair Windows? Solution Problem with Johnb6767's suggestion is you need an XP Pro SP1 or later CD to do that. If you have the CD, I STRONGLY recommend UBCD4WIN over the recovery console. Without it, repair is difficult. You can recover data using a Linux LiveCD, but that can't write to the NTFS drive. Barrow an XP CD for a friend. |
