To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start Windows RE.

To do this, follow these steps:

Press a key when you are prompted.

Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.

Click Repair your computer.

Click the operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next.

In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click Command Prompt.

Type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.

Note To start the computer from the Windows Vista or Windows 7 DVD, the computer must be configured to start from the DVD drive.

For more information about how to configure the computer to start from the DVD drive, see the documentation that is included with the computer or contact the computer manufacturer.

Bootrec.exe options

The Bootrec.exe tool supports the following options. Use the option that is appropriate for your situation.

Note Use the Bootrec.exe tool to troubleshoot "Bootmgr Is Missing" issue.

If rebuilding the BCD does not resolve the startup issue, you can export and delete the BCD, and then run this option again.

By doing this, you make sure that the BCD is completely rebuilt.

To do this, type the following commands at the Windows RE command prompt:

bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup

c:

cd boot

attrib bcd -s -h -r

ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old

bootrec /RebuildBcd

/FixMbr

The /FixMbr option writes a Windows 7 or Windows Vista-compatible MBR to the system partition. This option does not overwrite the existing partition table.

Use this option when you must resolve MBR corruption issues, or when you have to remove non-standard code from the MBR.

/FixBoot

The /FixBoot option writes a new boot sector to the system partition by using a boot sector that is compatible with Windows Vista or Windows 7.

Use this option if one of the following conditions is true.

The boot sector has been replaced with a non-standard Windows Vista or Windows 7 boot sector.

The boot sector is damaged.

An earlier Windows operating system has been installed after Windows Vista or Windows 7 was installed. In this scenario, the computer starts by using Windows NT Loader (NTLDR) instead of Windows Boot Manager (Bootmgr.exe).

/ScanOs

The /ScanOs option scans all disks for installations that are compatible with Windows Vista or Windows 7.

Additionally, this option displays the entries that are currently not in the BCD store.

Use this option when there are Windows Vista or Windows 7 installations that the Boot Manager menu does not list.

/RebuildBcd

The /RebuildBcd option scans all disks for installations that are compatible with Windows Vista or Windows 7.

Additionally, this option lets you select the installations that you want to add to the BCD store.

Use this option when you must completely rebuild the BCD.

hope this helps

Hi,
You need the original installations DVD's.
On windows xp,you can't upgrade to windows 7 so you have to run a clean installation.This is done by inserting the installation DVD's to run set up and following instructions.
To maintain the settings that you have in windows xp,you may need an external hard disk first to migrate files off your pc.This is done using Windows 7 Easy transfer from which you will later re-install your files and softwares.This software is available in windows 7 installations DVD's under support.
Visit this sites to learn more on the installations.

If a game is really old, sometimes, they won't play on newer operating systems. If you would like to play it, get a newer or older operating system, depending on the Computer Requirements on the back of your game.

If you have a windows installation disc, you can boot with it and choose repair. Let windows repair the startup files. In Vista, just boot with the disc, choose repair, vista will search the windows installations and give you the result, you highlight the installation and hit repair.

If you have XP, choose repair and when is says to exit to go to recovery console ot install, click install > click F8 to agree > windows will search for windows installations, again highlight the windows installation and choose to repair at that point, windows will attempt to fix the startup files.

I assume you are talking about a tv, lcd or plasma?

You may need a new Z Sustain Board . Usually replace the Main Board as well. If your tv is still under warranty I would go that route. sometimes the cable can be bad between. Hard to say without opening it up. A few brands that have great warranty and include home visits are Vizio, HP, and Polaroid.

Hello... Please go thru this. Souce:http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/showthread.php?t=573497
I may have a work around
It is a way to give admin privs to the msi file
First, create a file called Arthur.bat
- Open a folder, say C:\temp
- Right-click and select new, Text Document
- name it Arthur.bat
Next, edit the file
- right click the file and select edit
- put this in the editor ... msiexec /a d:\Arthur.msi
- save and exit
Then, right-click the file and select "Run as administrator"

Worked for me.

There is another msi file (ISScript11.msi) on the CD which I didn't run which may be needed ? But, I managed to play through the tutorial/start so ... we w ill see.

So, it is a permissions thing. Hopefully this will get passed on to the developers and they can resolve it tout-de-suite
