[microsound] Re: [Bulk] Re: [microsound] recovery of sound files on pc, emergency assist needed in lyon, france



I am in no way a WinXP pro, but I had to "repair" my aunt's pc this summer, which had a similar problem (config file missing). What I did was to plug the HD on my own pc (running Linux), back-up the documents, re-install Windows from scratch, and put back the documents. It worked perfectly. I don't think you can reboot under WinXP without your config files, but I can be wrong. Windows is really a pain in the neck when it comes to system configuration.
