So, was running through the steps to change the tcpip stack size in my vista install (don't ask me why)
Well, there was a handy-dandy .bat file that was supposed to change everything for me, so i went ahead and ran it.
Upon restart, I get a bsod for 1 second, then then comp reboots. I can't even log onto safe mode. I also can't seem to find my install cd, and I can't burn another copy (I backed up the original cd) because for some reason my XP install isn't recognizing my SATA dvd burner.
I reverse engineered the steps the .bat file went through to change my registry and such, but i'm stuck. First of all, could someone tell me the default size of the tcpip stack in the registry? This is for Vista Ultimate. Should be under: hkey local machine/controlset1/system/services/tcpip/parameters (can't remember which value it is under parameters)
And secondly...the .bat replaced the original tcpip.sys file with a fixed version, but saved the original under a different name. I can't delete the new/broken tcpip.sys file from my XP partition because of Vista's file protection...so how am I supposed to replace the broken tcpip.sys with the good one if I can't boot into vista?
