[RESOLVED] Startup Repair
I have several problems piling up, and I need to repair my Win 7. No updates installed since December (this might actually be a good thing.) .NET refuses to update, sfc gives me errors in its log.....
Is this similar to Repair Install in XP? Any do's or don'ts before I start?

That link that you posted is for a Startup Repair. If your computer is booting OK, that probably won't help with your issues. Below are some links for a Repair Install. Read through them carefully, as they have answers to some of your questions.

The usual precaution before trying this procedure is to make sure that you have a backup of all of your important files and data. In addition, I recommend making an image backup also, just in case something goes wrong during the process (like a power failure, unexpected error, etc.). Then, you can restore your system to the way it was before attempting the repair.

Thanks. 1st one involves D/L all the updates, 3rd one looks like the easiest, but PCGamer!!??
I still have one excellent machine on XP Pro if necessary...;-)

PC Gamer and Maximum PC have combined their web sites. That is actually a Maximum PC info page.
