Trying to fix my C: drive.
I load the XP CD and get the recovery console.
I type:
Fixmbr c:
fixboot c:
bootcfg /rebuild
It scans all disks and says scan successful.
Window installs:1
[1] c:\windows
It asks: Add installation to boot list? (Y, N, All) (I answer Y)
Enter load identifier: (?? I answer aa)
Enter OS load options: (?? I answer "enter")
It exits to:
C:\Windows>
What is the correct answer for these 3 questions?
What do they want?
Are there more questions?
Did it do the rebuild?
The third question is for a boot.ini switch. Put /fastdetect. Another common switch (with SP2) is the DEP /NoExecute=[option] switch. You can have more than one switch in the file, example :
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn
For your purpose you can put the /fasstdetect only switch and try to boot the pc. You can edit the file later and add other switches.
