Alright so,
I recently got my Hard Drive a CHDSK because of some issues explained in another thread, now we are getting closer to a fix, or I hope so.
[I]So once again, file recovery is primary, do not suggest any jackass solutions that could corrupt or make my files unrevoverable[/I]
So here is the problem. I start up my PC, everything boots up normally. And then it tells me:
[B]Boot.ini invalid[/B]
[B]Some other text that I don't have time to read[/B]
It then aks if I want to boot in [B]safe mode[/B], [B]safe mode + networking[/B] and ect.
I let it go, it boots windows, or it starts to.
I get the [I]welcome screen[/I] and windows is loading. But it stop and goes in a BSOD.
The BSOD is as follows.

Now I read some articles and these two problems don't seem to be related, but I am guessing they both have to do with boot.ini .
Now I was given two solutions.
[B]1. Recovery Console and make a FIXBOOT[/B]
This solution is to fix the BSOD which occurs AFTER my boot.ini invalid problem.
[B]2. Recovery Console and rebuild the boot.ini file with bootcfg.exe[/B]
Now what of the two am I supposed to follow? I don't wanna screw anything up.
My files need to be safe and recoverable.
Thanks
if you are hard core look up boot.ini and rewite it
or
(in recovery console) cp <driveletter>:\<path to boot.ini> C:\windows
But which one would you recommend the most?
I don't see what your;
