PDR 100 Release Notes

Windows NT Operating System is Corrupt

Use the Emergency Repair Disk. (See the Windows NT manual.)

>>> WARNING. The Emergency Repair Disk is PDR100 specific. (The disk shipped with the

PDR100 is the ONLY one that will work with that PDR100.) Keep track of this disk.

>>> WARNING. Repairing the Window NT operating system requires a copy of

Windows NT 3.51. This is NOT included with the PDR100. You must purchase a copy of
this software from your local retailer or call Tektronix Service for help.

1. Verify that you have a source of setup information available (in floppy format). See

the above warning.

2. Insert the Windows NT Setup disk.

3. Restart the PDR100.

4. When the Windows NT Setup Screen appears, press R (repair).

5. When prompted, insert the Emergency Repair disk.

6. The Emergency Repair disk performs the following:

a. Runs CHKDSK.EXE on the WINNT and SYSTEM partitions.

b. Verifies each file in the installation and replaces any that are missing or corrupt.

c. Replaces the System, Security, and Security Accounts Manager hives in the

registry.

d. Reinstalls the Boot Loader (the boot sector, BOOT.INI, etc.).
