Should I be stupid enough to DELETE a 'boot.ini' file on an XPpro
machine,......
...do I have a chance of getting this machine back?

Can I use a Repair Install to fix this stupid USER error?

This is not cardiac arrest.
This is a very old and "dying" machine I forced to WinXP.
This is an Asus CUBX m/b (512MB).
This is an Intel P-3 800Mhz machine.
This is a machine that has been flakey for about 6 months!
This is a machine that does not like to 'Shut Down.'

I can totally loose all of the DATA on this machine! I backed this
machine up 2 days ago using my M$ backup logic.

Opinions welcome.
Viking Funeral is in the plan.......
(I get a Lian-Li case for a new toy!)
Best,
Duncan
