Change msconfig setting from recovery console

[Guest Paulo Mesquita]

Hello,

 

I've a server with a malware (syschost exe) and in the process of cleannig i

used msconfig to check the safeboot option.

 

After some restarts i now cannot login to teh system (i login and i'm

immediatley logged out), this is one of the reported consequences of the

malware.

 

I've a workaround to resolve thsi but i need that the server booting

normaly, but because of the msconfig option the server always boots in safe

mode.

 

My question is: Using the recovery console is possible to something to

boot.ini so i can boot normally?

 

Thanks for your help.
