RE: How to get command prompt before windows loading
I got it to work! I used the windows boot disc to get to the recovery console and it worked perfectly. Thanks for everyone's help. | UDcc123 | Tech Talk | 03-08-2008 at 02:34 PM |
RE: How to get command prompt before windows loading
Okay. I'm slowly getting there. I made the backup DOS boot disk two nights ago, but when I got home and tried to load it I got the following error: Disk I/O error Replace the disk, and then press any key I figured the DOS program wasn't being ... | UDcc123 | Tech Talk | 03-08-2008 at 12:05 AM |
RE: How to get command prompt before windows loading
The floppy option would probably be easiest. Would it work burning a CD for an MS-DOS startup disk too, or just with a floppy? If only a floppy works, does Circuit City sell floppys? If that option doesn't work, I assume since it's a personal PC... | UDcc123 | Tech Talk | 03-06-2008 at 02:07 PM |

RE: How to get command prompt before windows loading
Thanks. I don't need to rename the entire System32 folder...just the csrss.exe1 file that's within the folder (to change the extension back to .exe). I'll try safe mode and then last known good config too. It's windows 2000. Thanks. | UDcc123 | Tech Talk | 03-05-2008 at 02:14 PM |
How to get command prompt before windows loading
HELP. I had 2 csrss.exe files running on my Dell PC and read that was a bad thing and could be a virus. So I did a search on my C drive to see where these files were located & 5 came back. I kept one in C:/Windows without changing it, but changed t... | UDcc123 | Tech Talk | 03-05-2008 at 01:16 PM |
