When I did this, it automatically tried loading the drivers from the System32 folder, which crashed the PC before it gave me the command prompt. 

Is there a way to get to the command prompt before loading any other files?  Could I load a CD or floppy with DOS loaded onto it and rename the file from there?  If so, where would I buy one of these discs?

I tried the last known good config, but unfortunately, windows shut down properly last time (even with the renames), so no luck there.
