    Boot.ini

    for reason I wont divulge here---

    it seems my boot.ini file has gone west,,
    PC still runs, but am expecting a BSOD at any moment,,
    have run CHKDSK twice and the second time was clean, but bootcfg /rebuild fails---

    its been all of 15 months since last clean install so I guess its time,,
    did have a virus though-- gone now.
    I think.

    hmmm,
    the "reason"
    is, I was updating XP using AUTOPATCHER and it tells me--

    MODULE PANIC
    Security Update for .NET Framework2

    "Parent or Prerequisitie item missing"


    I gather this means .NET is missing?


    (Thanks Grizzley)
