For those that find the above site confusing , here is what to do .
Alter MaxBackupCopies from 5 to 14 as per instructions at above site .
Download the zipped copy of the Batch file from ,
http://www.pcnineoneone.com/downloads/cabrest.zip
Unzip , copy & paste cabrest onto the top of C in Windows Explorer .
Delete zip file , or save it on floppy , if you want it for others or the
future .
Print the instructions below & stick on your comp in front of you , so
when you have to go back to a good copy of the registry , you don't
need to search for them .
------------------------------------
Toggle F8 ( when , verifying DMA pool message comes on ) or Press Ctrl
during bootup .
Select , Command prompt only .
Type in cabrest & press Enter , keep answering y & you will see a
table , which will allow you to select which CAB file to restore from .
So , for example , to restore from rb009 cab , you look at the table &
see 09 corresponds to the letter j . You type j & Not the number .
Follow instructions .
Type win & press Enter to exit .
If after following the instructions to Restore , things arn't still
working , go to an earlier date & try again .
Type win & press Enter to exit .
