My uncles notebook won't boot due to this code:
I'm familiar with the code and I've always thought it was because of a corrupt boot.ini.
I'd usually just insert the windows cd-rom and repair it ( never that easy ) :|
well my uncles cd-rom is broken so I'm not able to do so.....
I was hoping to pick up a cd-rom for cheap at a local computer repair store, but they don't have any in stock. The guy at the computer place says it's the HD and the symptom is a corrupt boot.ini
this is the second time I've seen this error, I was under the impression it was just improper shut down due to the battery dying or such.
Ideas?
one more note, I thought external cd-rom drives are unable to work properly without a driver so if I was to try to use one, it would not recognize :fail: The guy at the computer repair store said some notebooks can do it others can't. True or False?
Thanks
