When repairing my XP Pro SP2 NTFS using the install cd with SP2
slipstreamed, after copying files,initialising config and the first
system reboot it comes to the "files needed" error as mentioned in MS
KB311755. It also freezes the keyboard and mouse.

I tried to solve the problem (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311755)
using:
Method 1: "press SHIFT+F10 to start a command session" nothing happens
for the KB and mouse are dead.

Method 2: proceed successfully but same error comes up again after
system restarts, returns to groung zero.

Method 3: I start the "Recovery Console" with a retail (Boxed) cd
with a hologram and come to the command prompt C:\windows. It says
"Check the C:\$win_nt$.~ls folder. Look for the Asms folder"
inhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/311755, how could i change dir to
c:\? It dose not response as i type cd ..\$win_nt$.~ls in the command
prompt c:\windows. In Recovery console "CD (Chdir) operates only in
the system directories of the current Windows installation, removable
media, the root directory of any hard disk partition, or the local installation
sources." (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307654/)

All come to dead ends, Please help and enlighten me, Thank you!!


That's the trouble with slipstreams; I'm going to guess you never "proved" that it worked, did you? Get an imaging program and forget slipstreaming for the dog it is.




Slipstreaming is not "a dog". I have used slipstreamed XP install CDs for various versions of that OS for years. If you had trouble with slipstreaming, you weren't doing something correctly.

To the OP: What was the reason you felt you needed to do a Repair Install? A description of your computer would come in handy for people trying to help you, too.

What are you trying to accomplish with the Recovery Console?

It is quite possible that you have hardware issues (the most common reason for not being able to install an operating system) but I can't guess since you haven't told us anything about why you're doing whatever it is you're wanting to do.
