Using the Repair Disks

When you need to recover Windows NT, follow this procedure:

1. Insert the floppy with the DOS files you copied into your floppy drive and then start SunPCi.

   Your SunPCi window will boot to the DOS prompt.

   ---

   Note –

   If you have trouble booting to the DOS prompt and you have the MS-DOS 6.22 diskette available, insert the DOS diskette into your floppy drive and restart SunPCi again.

   ---

2. At the DOS prompt, copy the files from the other floppies back into the directory paths specified in each of the steps.

3. Copy the files you stored on your workstation's hard disk into the specified directories.

4. When you have finished copying all of the saved files into their respective directories, choose File and Reset PC to restart SunPCi.

   SunPCi boots into Windows NT.

5. If you have trouble booting into Windows NT, insert the floppy with the Windows NT boot files that you created in Step 1 of the previous procedure in your floppy drive and restart SunPCi again.

   Windows NT should boot from the floppy; press F3 to boot to the DOS prompt. You can now recopy the Windows NT boot files from the floppy disk onto your C: drive.

   Note –

   If you need to restore the Windows NT system password files only, restore the following files: C:\System32\config\Sam C:\System32\config\Sam.log C:\System32\config\Sam.sav
