Doing a 'Repair Install'
Over the years I have done severs 'Repair Installs' under Windows XP. Usually because of changing a mother board. I have seen several suggestions in this forum to others advising them to do a 'Repair Install' of Windows 7 to correct a problem. I didn't want to hijack the threads to ask exactly how you do that so I will start a new thread to find out how to do it. I have booted the RC CD several times to see if I could find a way but the closest I can come is to find a item to repair a problem that prevents your computer from starting or something like that. As I understand it, that option has more to do with solving boot manager problems that actually repairing any problem Windows 7 files.
So my question is, is that option equvalent to the Windows XP 'repair install' or 'In place upgrade'?
I would really appreciate knowing how to do it under Windows 7 for i feel it will come up one of these days.
Thank you very much.
