I was hoping to keep a record of my vacation (more for my sake than for any interest it might have) but my laptop threw a shoe.
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM
Kee-rap! Wouldn’t you know it, I have CDs of Windows from 98 to XP home but no XP pro cds to attempt a repair (I have MCE CDs but they seem to lock up when attempting to use them).
Oh Joy. I get to pull my hard drive.
