2: Reboot a PC into “Last Known Good Configuration”

Rebooting a PC into “Last Known Good Configuration” mode forces a computer to use a saved version of the Windows registry that was in place the last time that computer successfully booted. This should fix all registry-related boot errors, assuming the last registry backup is available and is good condition.

Here are the steps to restore a PC to a previous state:

1. Restart the computer
2. Wait for the BIOS to complete POST (the screen with manufacturer logo and/or system information)
3. Quickly begin tapping F8 repeatedly, until the list of boot options is displayed
4. Choose “Last Known Good Configuration (Advanced)”
5. Press Enter and wait for the PC to boot.

Here is an example of the Windows Advanced Boot options menu, with the “Last Known Good Configuration” option selected:

2: Check the disk file system with CHKDSK utility

Since the error is often caused by a corrupt registry, checking and fixing the Windows file system with CHKDSK might be a good solution.

1. Insert the Windows XP installation CD
2. Restart the computer and boot from the CD
3. Press any key to boot from the CD
4. Press R when the Windows Options menu is loaded to access Repair Console
5. Enter the Administrator password
6. When the Command Prompt appears, type the following command: chkdsk C: /r where C: (without a trailing slash: /) is letter of the Windows installation drive (it’s usually C:)
7. Press Enter
8. Remove the CD and type Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
9. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
10. Choose your language settings, and then click "Next."
11. Click "Repair your computer." If you do not have this disc, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance. File: \Windows\System32\config\system Status: 0xc000000f Info: Windows failed to load because the system registry file is missing, or corrupt. 1: exit
12. Press Enter
13. Restart the PC

3: Restore the registry manually

The corrupted registry may also be fixed by replacing it with a clean copy that was created on the hard drive when Windows was installed. Note that this operation will restore the system to a state that might be very far from its current state; however, it still should be possible to recover user data in that state. This procedure also should not be used if the computer has an OEM-installed operating system, because the system registry hive on OEM installations creates passwords and user accounts that did not exist previously. This means that if these steps are followed on an OEM machine, then it may not be possible to log back into the recovery console to restore the original registry hives.

First, a backup of all current registry files is made so that they could be restored if anything goes wrong. Then, the existing registry is deleted, and replaced with a clean copy from the C:\Windows\Repair folder.

1. Insert the Windows XP setup CD and restart the computer
2. Press any key to boot from the CD
3. Press R to access Repair Console
4. Enter the Administrator password. When the Command Prompt appears, type the following commands, one at a time and press Enter after each command, replacing C: with the Windows’ drive letter: md tmp copy c:\windows\system32\config\system c:\windows\tmp\system.bak copy c:\windows\system32\config\software c:\windows\tmp\software.bak copy c:\windows\system32\config\sam c:\windows\tmp\sam.bak copy c:\windows\system32\config\security c:\windows\tmp\security.bak copy c:\windows\system32\config\default c:\windows\tmp\default.bak
   
   Backing up current registry hives delete c:\windows\system32\config\system delete c:\windows\system32\config\software delete c:\windows\system32\config\sam delete c:\windows\system32\config\security delete c:\windows\system32\config\default
   
   Deleting current registry hives copy c:\windows\repair\system c:\windows\system32\config\system copy c:\windows\repair\software c:\windows\system32\config\software copy c:\windows\repair\sam c:\windows\system32\config\sam copy c:\windows\repair\security c:\windows\system32\config\security copy c:\windows\repair\default c:\windows\system32\config\default
   
   Restoring registry hives from a repair folder
5. Type Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
6. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
7. Choose your language settings, and then click "Next."
8. Click "Repair your computer." If you do not have this disc, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance. File: \Windows\System32\config\system Status: 0xc000000f Info: Windows failed to load because the system registry file is missing, or corrupt. 1 and remove your CD: exit
9. Press Enter
10. Restart your computer

Right after the boot process is completed successfully, it is possible to either backup all user data and reinstall Windows from scratch, or follow the procedure described in the Windows KB corrupted registry article to manually restore the system registry to a more newer version that was backed up by System Restore.
