Ok so here is my dilemna. I will try to explain it the best I can with my limited technical knowledge.
Ok so one day, I'm sitting there right, and for some odd reason, I had to shut down my PC. Well when I go to turn it back on, it tells me that the system.ini file is missing or corrupt. So I get all pissed and throw the tower out my second story window. Is there any hope to make it work again? AYE! JK....
Ok so the file is missing or corrupt--I get my greasy hooks on a Windows 2000 CD, I ummm don't know what happened to the licensed version that I had legally purchased :D , anyway, my PC won't read the CD drive.
WAIT! B4 you jump to conclusions, I have tried to set the BIOS to read the CD-rom first then other drives--no luck! So I ended up havng to build a crappy azz backup machine from spare parts cuz yall know I can't live without pws.com.
So anyways, all I really want from that old PC is my MP3's (1000's of them)and my pics (hundreds of them). If I set it to slave in my crappy machine, will I be able to access the data from NT? I don't know what the hell I was thinking installing NT (no USB support, no new MSN Messenger, etc). I was going to set up a lil network but I think 2000 will suffice for three PC's.
So I assume that sys.ini is a crucial Windows startup file, and my whole harddrive will not have to be formatted, or at least I hope not. :Cry
Oh please Computer Gods, I swear to use my burner for what it was made for if you just let me access that HD!!!!!
Ok any suggestions would be great!
:D
