LogNg Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 Hello everyone.I am a newbie here so could anyone please help me? I will greatly appreciate. I have a CD that I used to use to install before. I have almost everything I need and it is very stable for me. Unfortunately, for some reason, it have error and I cannot finish the installation with it. I have the image of the CD but the image is also got some problem. It cannot boot. I there anyway I can remake the CD with nLite?
Redhatcc Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 from my experience i dont think that nlite will make it rebootable again, you might can redownload a copy of xp to burn to a cd (not sure where the best place to look at)but if that exact image worked on other computers and wont work on the one your trying it on maybe try putting another cd drive in there (honestly if something wont boot i put a eMachine DVD-ROM in the computer and if it wont boot then its the cd haha) and see how that works. also make sure the computer your booting to is enabled to boot from the cd drive before the hdd or for most computers on boot press F12 to select single time boot menu
LogNg Posted December 19, 2008 Author Posted December 19, 2008 (edited) Actually the problem is it booted into the the blue setup screen and starting to load the driver then !!!boom!!! it said some file is corrupt or something and cannot continue the installation. I don't know what happen but the CD is made from the image of the old CD I used to install about 4-5 times already and it went smoothly. I accidentally cracked the old CD so I have to used the image to burn the other one but the new one is got the problem I said above. The image can be mounted and read with any typical image application (Alcohol, WinISO, UltraISO) so I guess it is not corrupted. I just missing some boot files. I guess for some weird reasons in the process of copy into image and then burn to the CD somehow those files is missed or corrupted. Is there someway I can fix or restore the files?
