STOP: c0000218
When I start my computer, I get the following error message:
STOP: c0000218 {Registry File Failure}
The registry cannot load the hive (file):
\systemRoot\System32\Config\SOFTWARE
or its log or alternate
It is corrupt, absent, or not writable.
Beginning dump of physical memory
Physical memory dump complete
Contact your system admin or technical support group for further assistance
I realize that I have to install and boot from the "Recovery Console" found on the XP CD. I've checked out Microsoft.com, so please don't reply with a link to that text. My question is this: If I do what Microsoft says and reboot the registry files, will I lose all of the files on my computer?
Thanks
