One very odd repair.

For this one, since you can't fix the installed OS you try the "XP REPAIR INSTALL" then if that fails you get your files out and then start over.

Be sure to google "XP REPAIR INSTALL"

If the OS is damaged enough, repair install never works.

That's when I turn to getting files out and starting over.

Can you reveal why anyone today would play with MSGINA?
