Following a system shutdown imposed by low battery power
now computer fails to boot up at all - aborts seconds
after windows screen comes up - get a blank screen -
occasionally beeps a few times but can't see what's
happening then just goes 'dead'. When trying to boot from
boot set up disks - after disk 2 it gives an error
msg "file usbstor.sys is corrupted - set up failed" and
then just stops.
Any enlightenment would be helpful.
Cheers.
 
Try recreating the setup disks. The set of four install disks can be created
from your Windows 2000 CD-Rom; change to the \bootdisk directory on the
CD-Rom and execute makeboot.exe (from dos) or makebt32.exe (from 32 bit) and
follow the prompts.
