Recovery option #3: Recovery Console (RC) Boot
The Recovery Console (RC) can be used when safe boot fails. You can enter RC:
· either by booting from Windows 2000 CD-ROM
· or by installing the RC boot on your system.
It is recommended to install the RC immediately after installing Windows 2000.
Start RC Booting from Windows 2000 CD-ROM
If you have a need of booting the Windows 2000 recovery console but this feature
is not installed on the system, use the following procedure to boot the RC from the
Windows 2000 CD-ROM.
1. Insert the Windows 2000 CD-ROM and start the reboot sequence.
2. Press any key when prompted to start booting from the Windows 2000 CD-
ROM.
3. Press F10 at the Welcome to Setup screen.
NOTE This is an undocumented option. The bottom of the display is
asking you to press Enter, R or F3.
4. The system will display a menu asking to select the instance of the NOS you
want to boot. For example:
1: C:\WINNT
5. Type 1 then Enter.
6. Type the administrator password when prompted.
7. At the command prompt type help and proceed to achieve your objective.
8. Type exit when done troubleshooting.
Installing RC

to close the applet.
2. Open a command prompt, and type
D:\I386\WINNT32 /CMDCONS
(Where D: is the CD-ROM drive letter)
3. Follow the screen instructions to complete the RC installation.
