windows 2008 repair
I had a server crash and i had to replace the server with a new server. I used Windows 2008 backup. I booted to the cd, and restored the last backup i had. Now when i get to the ctl+alt+del screen the mouse and keyboard work for a few seconds. This happens in safe mode as well. I want to reinstall windows 2008 without losing my data that was restored. If i do the following steps:
Boot from OS install disk.
Select next after making sure the language options are correct.
Select Repair option
Select CMD
CD into recovery
Type Dir
Run the StartRep.exe command in the list.
Will i loose my data?
