computer has 2 hard drives C: and D: which have windows
Is this a dual boot - two hard drives with windows on each OR one hard drive partitioned.. Please explain a little further.
When you say repair area do you mean recovery console?
frequently a corrupted registryerror was \windows\system32\config\system not found or corrupt
See this - Seatools for dos will work on any hard drive. If the computer has a floppy - download to another computer install on a floppy and run on this computer. See if Seatools will see the hard drive/s and run a check. It is ONLY a check for the state of the disk. It is not a windows chkdsk for data corruption.
