This type of post that “is such a simple thing that nobody would ever consider writing a blog entry or howto about it” is EXACTLY what high heel wearing, nail polish sporting girls like me need!

Done, all on my own (without the help of an I-can’t-believe-you’re-asking-help-with-that IT guy)! Score!

My PC boots now but 3 years of software settings are gone.

This was the exact answer to the problem I was helping someone out with. Their computer did not have a backup system hive, and the only other option was to reinstall. I blogged about the problem and referenced your site.

Thanks again!

I’ve been away. Was it an eBay offer? I think I did respond that I would take offers.. it’s just sat doing nothing.

Just a reminder that you have not responded to my offer for the Pandaboard.
(But maybe I don’t want it anymore, having just bought a RasPi. :-)

Now I see why! I was able to install Windows on the 2nd partition (making the system dual boot) then loaded from Windows on the D: drive without any issues. Now I can run chkdsk & fix the corrupt registry on the C: drive, back up files and so on, without a laptop or other computer. So for future readers, this guide assumes you have no other partitions! If you do, use those instead of hacking hardware. Great post!
