I am trying to run a repair using boot up disc on a
computer i had to replace the mother board in. The
motherboard is different than what was in there before.
so windows doesnt recognize the new serial number of the
mother board. I am trying to not lose my information on
the computer and trying to avoid a format at all costs.
I am having a problem with an lsass file when I try to
install again and upgrade, and when I try to repair it in
the beginning of setup, it asks for a password and I have
never set a password on my computer. If anyone knows how
to solve this problem in anyway without formatting please
respond to post or email me. Thank You!!!!
 
If you want to run a repair install you are taking the
wrong route.
Boot from the cd again and instead of hitting R for
repair hit Enter.
Then press F8 to accept licence.
Then highlight the Windows you want to repair and then
hit R.
You will need your product key.
This will not lose information (data) and your programs
also stay intact.
