I put another HD in to give me some space to run recovery console. I then got to the point where I could run batch spuninst, but it still wouldn't boot, so I then copied the I386 directory to the additional drive and ran setup from that to do an in place upgrade. I had to swap the drives around to get it to boot from the temporary directory; However when I get to identifying where to install Windows it sees a Windows directory on what is now the D drive and says it will overwrite all user information. It's a long time since I did one of these but shouldn't it offer the repair option? |
