I can no longer boot my Win2K sp4, the erd and repair mode doesn't fix
it; I can only boot from my floppy boot disk. I've replaced my boot.ini
and edited them to see all of the drives and partitions with no success.
I would like to re-install the system over the existing system, so my
question is: can I do this without having to re-install the service
packs and additional installed software ??
