fubz Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 Whats the command to repair windows system files. I think it started with a "S" like scan'something' it would get the files needed off of the windows disk in folder I38 or something like that. I dont think it was chkdsk..... i would google it but ya... you cant google stuff u dont know the name of. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fubz Posted September 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 because my brothers computer freezes at mup.sys so i went into windows XP so i could use repair to do te command, but it doesnt let me. So now im like the thousands of others when you search about mup.sys on google, there is no solution, nohthing helps, so im left with a reformat. so stupid... windows sucks, too he plays games or i would stick him with linux.

Chappy Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 After reading up on this problem, it doesn't seem like it's actually the file mup.sys thats the root cause of the problem, it seems that its just where the thing decides to hang up most times.The various fixes that have worked range from A to Z it seems, but Here is the article that has the most info and trials for you to try.
