Thanks all for the comments, any more are welcome ( I have the Blackberry),have a great weekend, I'm outta here. John W.

How many workstations/servers in the domain? If not so many may be easier/quicker to install new DC and rejoin the hosts. Cheers.

I got a call from a friend asking me if there was any way to recover a domain controller (only one, W2K, HP Blade I believe) from an unbootable C: drive. There is a system state backup, is that enough to do a recovery? I personally have never had to recover from such robust stupidity so I really don't know but my initial thought is they're screwed. If anyone can tell me differently it would be most appreciated. John W.
