bad backups

[Guest b11_]

The other day, I tryed to restore a backup registry but, according to

Scanreg, all 5 backups were bad. Why would all 5 registry backups be bad?

Re: bad backups

 

Why do you need to restore the registry? If you are receiving messages

that the registry is corrupted, then it is possible that you have bad RAM.

In that case, every copy of the registry you restore will appear to be bad

when it is loaded into the bad RAM.

You corrupted the Registry first.

In what way did scanreg say they were bad? Exactly what message did you receive?
