4. A Windows Setup Dialog Box appears. The Windows Setup Dialog Box describes the Recovery Console option. To confirm the installation, click Yes.
5. Restart the computer. The next time that you start your computer, "Microsoft Windows Recovery Console" appears on the startup menu

Logon to recovery console then type:
ren c:\boot.ini c:\bootno.ini
Reboot.
You will see a warning about missing boot.ini, but windows will use the default ntoskrnl.exe file located at system32 folder to boot the PC.

Thanks
