Can ME be restored after registry is corrupted?
The registry in the ME partition on my PC appears to be so badly corrupted
that Windows, when opened in Safe Mode, does not have anything except for the Desktop to show. But there are a number of applications of interest to me installed there. Is there any way to re-install ME and revive those applications? P. Jayant |

Jayant i've reinstalled ME over itself, and afterwards, very little needed reinstalling. antivirus (and maybe the wia/scanner app) had to repair itself with the software's CD. but i don't recall if me setup gave much clue about this. |

Most Win ME CD's are NOT bootable - as you are well aware.
