Link for disk image no longer needed...BUT:

Here is my problem...Media center PC (XP-PRO)..will not boot....
during boot process "NTDETECT Failed" message and boot process restarts..loops forever over three pre window screens

I have found a copy of ntdetect on another machine and booted the media center from a standalone cd...get to DOS prompts..

have found all the files but when I try to replace the one in the i386 dir...I get access denied message...

Any one have a clue.....Thank You

If you can boot to a repair CD, you can replace the files. Boot to the MiniNT file system on the CDRom and not the primary C drive partition.
