Hello,
I read quite a few messages about the missing or damaged system32\drivers\pci.sys problem.
My issue is that the PC starts and immediately goes to the startup options page (safe mode, start Windows normally, etc.).
However, when I try to start in safe mode or normally, nothing happens, just a black screen, and as soon as I press a key on the keyboard, the PC restarts.
If I try to start with the last known good configuration, it shows me the error that system32\drivers\pci.sys is damaged or missing.
I have tried many solutions given on the forum and here are the results: I found a faulty RAM stick, and when I boot from the installation CD and try to repair, I enter the command:
cd systm32\driversren pci.sys pci.old
It tells me the command is invalid.
And if I use the other command:
expand d:\i386\pci.sy_
It extracts the file, but it still doesn’t work.
Thank you for your help.
Configuration: Windows XP, Internet Explorer 7, 200 GB SATA disk

Hello
I found this. I hope it helps you.
The pci.sys file is missing or corrupted.
To resolve this issue, you need to extract the original file from the Windows CD-ROM. Here’s how to do it:
• Start in Recovery Console • To learn more about Recovery Console, see this section
• At the C:\Windows> prompt, and while respecting the spaces, type the following commands:
• C:\Windows>cd system32\drivers and press Enter
• C:\Windows\system32\drivers>ren pci.sys pci.old and press Enter
• C:\Windows\system32\drivers>expand d:\i386\pcy.sy_ and press Enter
(don’t forget the sign that appears right after the y in .sy)
• C:\Windows\system32\drivers>exit and press Enter to restart the computer.

As a courtesy, don’t leave the person who helped you without a response. A little word encourages.
