Critical system drive...\system32\drivers\tcpip.sys is missing or corrupt, Error 2000-0142,
Hi
I have a BIG problem. After starting my DEll Inspiron 1545 laptop with vista home edition laptop I received the following message:
Windows failed to start... recent hardware or software might be the cause. To fix:
- Insert windows disk ... & restart
- choose language... next
- Click repair
I tried to boot from my vista DVD following this Method but after pressing any key to boot from DVD, the widows is loading files message appears and then a BLUE BLANK screen remain there forever. I could not make it to select language step.
The other options:
- Safe mode
- Safe mode with Networking
- Safe mode with command prompt
- start using last known configuration
- Start windows normally
I tried to boot in all these possible cases but every time I received the following message
File: \windows\system32\drivers\TCPIP.sys
Status: 0xc0000221
Info: Windows failed to load because a critical system driver is missing, or corrupt.
When I click F2 to access the settings and choose system "information" and then click on "load defaults" button a warning message says:"SATA operation is being changed!" Changing the setting may prevent OS from booting or require a reinstall"
If I run the "Memory Diagnostics Tools" no problem detected and the above windows failed appears.
I appreciate any help as I have a work of two years hardwork on the computer without backup
