[QUOTE="pban92, post: 977298, member: 70809"] Thanks guys! hugtheslug: I followed your link as well and also followed this one [url=http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330184]"Invalid Boot.ini" or "Windows could not start" error messages when you start your computer[/url] Now when I restart I get two options, /fastdetect and Windows XP Professional. In both cases I keep getting the same old msg: "Windows could not start because the following file is missing or currupt: /windows/system32/config/system You can attempt to repair this file by starting windows setup using the original setup cd-rom. select 'r' at the first screen to start repair." I googled but in all the cases, the solution ended in clean installation. But just hoping that is not case for mac-forum user. Thanks all! [/QUOTE]
