• Upgrade Vista to Windows 7 error: "Windows cannot copy files required for installation. The files may be damaged or missing. Error Code Ox80070017.

  I am upgrading of Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit) for Windows 7 Home Premium (32 bit) - but getting stopped everytime I try, I end up with a dialog box stating: "Windows cannot copy files required for installation. The files may be damaged or missing. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation. Error Code Ox80070017.

  What should I do to resolve this problem and allow full of Windows 7 installation? (my computer is a Compaq Presario V6000).

  Hello

  What installation media you are using?

  Method 1:

  Error 0 x 80070017 translates "CRC error" which means that the files that are copied from the disc are not making it to the hard drive with the same structure, which means that the 'original' the disk files are modified/changed/corrupted while being copied to the location of the 'destination' on your disk during Setup.

  This usually means a bad DVD, or an error reading on the DVD player.

  Hello

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

• Does not start Equim A60 - system is damaged or missing

  Hi, is there anyone who can help me to save my data I had on my laptop Equium A60. The system displays this message when I boot it "WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM" IS DAMAGED or MISSING. I got my disk to RESTORE but it clealy invite, a warning message that all my data would be lost for the default setting is installed. I will definitely use this disc, but before that I need my data. Please also note that Windows XP is running on my system.

  The problem occurred when I installed the drivers for a BLUETOOTH dongle. The installation was perfect but when I rebooted my windows the above error msg appears and I can't get into windows. I used the F8 key and tried all the option here but none of them worked and I took them to the same message.

  I would appreciate if someone can help me in this matter.

  THANKS AND BYE - ads

  Hello Adnan,

  There is unfortunately no way to load your operating system with the error you describe. As you have already discovered it does not load even in 'SAFE' mode

  This means that you only options for recovery are: -.

  1 reinstall the recovery CDs (which will lose all your data during the re-form)

  2 try to recover the situation by using a Microsoft Installation CD authentic (by using the Recovery Console)

  3 remove the hard drive from your laptop and screw (with a USB caddy) to another PC so that you can
  Retrieve your data befor using option 1 above.

  Option 3 would probably be your best way to recover and would mean that you would not lose your data.

  I also recommend that you invest in a proper backup strategy (possibly drive external hard USB and a utility such as Norton Ghost or Acronis True Image) so that you can protect your system from such incidents in the future.

  Kind regards

• I recived the windows\system32\config\system damaged or missing error today

  I got the windows\system32\config\system error damaged or missing today and do the chkdsk c:/r on it and he said: "The Volume appears to contain one or more unrecoverable problems"... is it still fixable or have I just lost my HD?

  I can't do a cause of model, that I built it 2 years ago.
  I run windows xp professional, service Pack3, all updates
  I use spybot, avg, windows defender and malwarebytes
  Caused the computer to restart 4 times and I didn't know it until it was too late cause we had electricians turning the power on/off and I didn't know my computer kept on again and restart.
  I have a cdrom to work and I still have the xp cd.

  Note: I tried to do a repair of windows, go to the Setup screen. But there was no repair to the screen only option how much space is free, if I wanted to install or delete a partition. I have nothing just to the left.

  If chkdsk does not resolve your hard drive, then you will need in the end not completely reformat your hard drive and reinstall Windows.  Before doing so, however, you must save as much data as you can to an external USB hard drive.  If your system boots, then save as much as the hard drive will allow.  If your system does not start, then you should try to boot from a bootable CD that will support USB drives (I prefer free Linux Livecd such as Knoppix), then again until you can.

  To reinstall Windows, many computers have a recovery Partition that will restore your computer to its State as purchaser which can be activated by pressing a combination of keys special at the time where the manufacturer splash screen goes back to the start.  Read quickly, find the appropriate key combination and press it to reinstall Windows - well in your case, it seems that you have an installation CD.  If the request to do a 'Quick format' or 'Regular Format', do not select Quick format.

• I can't start windows, it says system32\config\system is damaged or missing I tried consol recovery and boot to the top of the cd

  I can't start windows, it says system32\config\system is damaged or missing I tried the recovery console and

  boot from the cd that it won't start any ideas?

  I cannot directions all of the Support Engineer.  It's just a Bing search engine and a link to an article.

  You need to work with someone who has actually really seen and corrected this questions a few thousand times in the real world.

  You must first start by entering in the XP Recovery Console and running a chkdsk/r from there.

  If you do not have a genuine XP bootable installation CD from which you cn safe in the XP Recovery Console or you are not sure that you have a bootable CD, make a bootable CD of XP (no XP media required) Recovery Console and run chkdsk /r there.

  Here's how:

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination? (This includes the plug pulling, buttons power and removing the battery).

  These can cause corruption in the file system that must be fixed before you do anything else.

  If none of these events occurred (or even if they have not taken place), you must verify the integrity of your file system before anything else (especially "try" things).

  There is zero logic to begin to try to begin to try to modify or copy files to a hard drive that has a corrupted file system, so this must first be fixed using the XP chkdsk program and run chkdsk on your hard drives may solve your problem completely.

  Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

  Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

  This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  xp_rec_con. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

  A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

  Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

  You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

• Windows 7 boot CD system recovery cannot fix the Master Boot Record is damaged or missing?

  This question is on the drive that Windows 7 users can make by going to the backup and restore > create a system repair disc, and then burn the disc.

  Windows says that this disk can be used to start the computer. However, you will not necessarily be able to boot your Windows 7 operating system from the hard drive. When I had a problem recently (shut down system and on reboot I got a message BACK that says "Boot MGR missing") this disc is not to try to do a repair. In the system recovery Menu, you see here when you start the CD:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/what-are-system-recovery-options#what-are-system-recovery...

  I chose "Startup Repair" and he couldn't fix anything. I ended up cloning of my hard disk from a backup.

  Of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/startup-repair-faq#1TC=windows-7

  "Are there problems that Startup Repair cannot fix?

  Startup Repair can only fix certain problems, such as missing or damaged system files. He can't fix the failures of hardware, such as a failing hard disk or incompatible memory, nor it protects against virus attacks.

  Startup Repair is not designed to fix Windows installation problems, is not a backup tool, so it cannot help you recover personal files, such as photos or documents. To help protect your computer, back up your system and your files regularly. For more information, search for "backup" in Windows Help and Support. »

  So here's my question: how to create a bootable CD that has everything you need to fix the Master Boot Record, whereas in case your startup files are damaged, altered, or deleted (and of course, you can not start your system from the hard drive) it will be either fix the files on the hard disk or at least still start your operating system on your hard drive?

  To answer my own question (which becomes a habit on this forum): http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/20864-mbr-restore-windows-7-master-boot-record.html

  It turns out that the repair CD Windows 7 Sytem that I had done was the right tool for the job but I didn't know how to use it. The above link explains how to use the command prompt window to repair the boot record.

  Other advice, I had was to have used the "Startup Repair" option in the Tools menu of recovery after launching the repair CD, but then he runs three times. For some reason, it takes three times to run before it can solve the problem. I think that the command prompt window method is probably more reliable.

• DVD/cd rom drives

  trouble with dvd/cd rom drives, it gives me a code 39 (damaged or missing driver)

  Try following the steps under "Windows XP" in the article following the MS KB:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/982116

  These measures, to remove the UpperFilters and LowerFilters, values if they exist, in the registry key named can help.

  Create a System Restore Point beforehand and restart the computer later.

• When I start my computer I get a message that says that the file < root windows > \system32\hal.dll. is damaged or missing.

  file HAL.dll

  When I start my computer I get a message that says that the file \system32\hal.dll. is damaged or missing. Please reinstall a copy of the file. I have the original Windows XP CD and I tried to re - install, but it will not go beyond the implementation of window. I can't sign in to windows. How can I reintall this file?

  It's extremely likely that you will need to replace the hal.dll and since there are seven files on the XP installation CD that will extend into hal.dll, which would you choose?  It depends on your hardware, but it is extremely likely that the problem (did I already say that?).  I've never had to replace a file hal.dll for this problem.

  The real problem is most likely that XP just can not find the file because of a file system corruption or a file c:\boot.ini afflicted.

  For this error, I would always be first boot from the XP Recovery Console and sometimes run a chkdsk-r that will fix things right to the top.

  If the chkdsk /r is clean and you have the same problem, and then re-create your c:\boot.ini file but rename the old one first so you don't build on top of those afflicted - this tidbit is absent from MS KB article that assumes too.

  You can do all this in the XP Recovery Console, but do go through these methods in this article and see how you go.

  For example, method 1 will not work if your system does not start.  You may have more luck with other "methods".

  If that doesn't work, then I suggest to provide a little more information about your system:

  Since the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

  Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Your system have IDE or SATA disks?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a real installation CD bootable XP which is the same Service Pack as your installed Service Pack? (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?
