You need to copy autoexec.nt and config.nt files from c:\windows\repair folder to c:\windows\system32 folder.

1. Click Start, click Run, type c:\windows\repair, and then click OK.
2. Right-click Autoexec.nt, and then click Copy.
3. Click Start, click Run, type c:\windows\system32, and then click OK.
4. Right-click anywhere in that folder, and then click Paste.
5. If asked to overwrite the file, answer Yes.
6. Right-click the Autoexec.nt file that you just copied, and then click Properties.
7. Click to select Read-Only, and then click OK.

8. Repeat steps 1 through 7 to copy the Config.nt file.
