How can I boot to command prompt in w2003K

I have to access regedit to change the registry before my machine will boot.
Cannot log in to windows at all.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Surely you didn't edit the one and only copy. This one might help.

If you ever backed up the reg you could restore the system hive from
%windir%\repair\regback\
Failing that you could use the as-installed system hive from
%windir%\repair\
The system hive contains the driver registrations and the system services configurations. Most likely is at least reinstalling the hardware and applications.

  • HT4818 I have installed bootcamp that worked properly.  Then I have partitioned the OS X 10.8.2 and installed another OS X 10.8.2 and I have got two MAC boot options and Bootcamp disappeared from the Option menu. How can I boot Windows again and keep both

    I have installed bootcamp by the bootcamp assistant and worked properly.
     Then I have partitioned the OS X 10.8.2 and installed another Mountain Lion System and I have got two MAC boot options and Bootcamp disappeared from the Option menu. However, Bootcamp still remained in the Startup Disk in the System Preferences. When I tried to boot Bootcamp using the Startup Disk it did not boot and received a message that there is no bootable device. I have not lost any data and can read Bootcamp partition from both OS X systems. Please advise how can I boot Windows / Bootcamp again? Thank you. 

    Recommendation 1: Use a VM for this. It's essentially a giant C.F. to do this with native booting, and is potentially fragile.
    But if you're going to ignore that and do this anyway, realizing that it can break anytime in particular with OS upgrades, and that it's very difficult to impossible to resize the three volumes once you've installed the systems:
    1. create three partitions, setting each to be the size for OS X copy 1, copy 2, and Windows respectively. The Windows partition needs to be set to MS-DOS format (actually FAT32) which later in the Windows installer you'll reformat as NTFS. Do not use Boot Camp Assistant to resize/partition the disk, it simply won't work for this use case.
    2. install OS X copy 1
    3. install OS X copy 3
    4. Use gdisk (available at sourceforge) which is a command line only application, to create a new hybrid MBR adding only the last partition (Windows) to the hybrid MBR and setting it to be bootable. As a concequence you will not be able to see/share either OS X volume from within Windows. The Windows NTFS volume will be visible from within OS X.
    5. Install Windows to the only partition its installer should see (confirm size), you'll need to format it NTFS first, and I suggest using the fast format option if available.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Lion uses Recovery to reinstall OS X. Press Command and R keys when your Mac starts, open Disk Utility, erase the drive and reinstall Lion. The other Mac has probably got its hard disk damaged, so take the Mac to an Apple Store

  • How can i boot my iphone after erasing using findmyiphone

    I accidentally erased my iphone using find my iphone and removed it also. now it says sim pin locked. how can i boot it again normally?

    Hello Mr.MacMac,
    It sounds like you are trying to restore your device but you are seeing a message about the Sim Pin being locked. I recommend the information in the following article:
    iOS: Understanding the SIM PIN
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1316
    You can enable, disable, or change your SIM PIN in the following locations:
    iPhone: Settings > Phone > SIM PIN
    iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular models): Settings > Cellular Data > SIM PIN
    Note: Some carriers provide SIM cards with a default SIM PIN already enabled. Contact your carrier to find out what your default SIM PIN code is.
    Restoring
    When restoring the device, you will need to unlock the SIM card to complete the restore process. The device and iTunes display the following prompts to notify you:
    To complete the restore process:
    Disconnect the device from your computer.
    Tap Unlock on the device.
    Enter the SIM PIN to unlock the SIM card.
    Reconnect the device to your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • How can I boot from my recovery dvd to reach the system recovery C: on a extern hard disc

    I think a have a virus in my notebook Pavilion 15 and want to restore my C partition with a system back up. I made this system back up a month ago and it is stored on a extern hard disc. I have also made a recovery dvd. How can I boot my notebook from my dvd to start the procedure? I have 2 partions on my notebook. The second partition contains My Documents.
    Thanks in advance.
    Tineke

    It is unlikely that the back-up of the system recovery, that you have stored on an external drive, will be useful in recovering your computer. Please see HP PCs - Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8), for instructions on using the HP Recovery Disc set your created earlier. Typically, the disc set is 4 to 6 DVDs.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • How can I boot my PXI controller into real-time without a floppy disk?

    My PXI controller is in a lab which has intense magnetic fields that could corrupt the floppy disk used to boot the PXI controller into the LabVIEW Real-Time (RT) Operating System. How can I boot the PXI controller into real-time directly from the hard drive?

    If you are using LabVIEW 5.1.2 Real-Time (RT), launch Remote System Explorer and select Disks >> Create Format Hard Drive Disk. If you have LabVIEW 6 RT, launch the Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) and select Tools >> RT PXI Disk Utilities >> Create Format Hard Drive Disk (LabVIEW RT 6 has not be released yet). Once you have created the disk, boot the PXI controller with the Format Hard Drive Disk, and this will format the PXI's hard drive and install the real-time OS boot loader. Now you can reboot the PXI without a floppy disk and configure the PXI using Remote System Explorer or MAX. Be aware that this will remove all information from the hard drive, including other operating systems.

  • How can I boot and run my Mac Mini on my 12" PwrBk display using firewire?

    How can I boot and run my Mac Mini on my 12" PwrBk display using firewire?

    bwhit:
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    No reason why you should not be able to do it using Firewire Target Disk Mode. Here's what you do:
    1. With both computers shut down connect both via firewire.
    2. Startup the Mini and hold down "T" key immediately after chime.
    3. Startup the PB and immediately after chime hold down Option key.
    4. Select second HDD icon on the screen and click on the right pointing arrow.
    5. Computer will boot from Mini's HDD.
    Be sure to shut down PB completely before shutting down Mini.
    Please do post back with an update or with further questions or comments.
    Cheers

    Sorry genius.....but if the Recovery disk shows up that means the disk cable isn't bad.  Could be he did have a screwed up HDD and when he put the NEW HDD in (after putting the OS on it via USB) the computer didn't reconize it and therefore didn't boot the OS.  Just maybe right genius?  Don't rush to criticize someone's recommendations until you realize other possibilities.  (I did say "if it does")

  • How to Get Input from Command Prompt?

    How can i get input from command prompt like
    C:\
    or linux ?
    (Here's what I use now)
    BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
    String line;
    Whlie((line=in.readLine())!= null)
    { System.out.prinln( line) ; }
    IS THERE A BETTER WAY?

    The main method within a java class accepts command line input through a String array.
    In this example args is the String array. You can access the parameters as args[0] for the first parameter, args[1] for the second parameter, etc....
    The usage for the example below would be :
    c:\EDIFormat file1 file2
    Where args[0] would equal file1 and args[1] would equal file2.
    public class EDIFormat {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
              if (args.length < 0) {
                   System.out.println("No Parameters supplied. Exiting....");
                   // open input and output files
                   EDIFiles(args[0], args[1]);
    Hope that helps!
