User’s Guide

 

If you have an unbootable system that was configured similarly to another 

installation on your network or to an on-disk image (such as an installation 

CD), use the ERD Commander 2003 System Compare utility to identify file, 

service and driver differences between the system and a reference image to 

help guide the repair process. 

The ERD Commander 2003 System Compare utility starts by asking you to 

select the local installation directory. By default, this is the system directory of 

the installation that you logged into. However, if corruption or other issues 

prevent ERD Commander 2003 from finding the installation directory you can 

also specify a directory. 

You can specify the reference installation in one of two ways: either as a 

computer name or as a path to an installation directory or Windows 

installation media root directory. You must enter computer names with a “\\” 

prefix e.g. “\\ref-comp”. If you designate a computer or a remote path the 

wizard requires you to enter an account name and password with which to 

access the remote location. You should enter a computer name if you want to 

compare both file and service and driver configuration, since only file 

information is available for comparison if you enter a directory path. 

After making your selections the ERD Commander 2003 System Compare 

utility performs the requested comparison and presents the results in a list. If 

the reference location is a computer then you have the option to see either 

file or driver and service differences. For files, the Details button or right-click 

context menu selection displays a dialog box with additional information 

about the selected file.
