A software and hardware driven CRASH REPAIR BOX allows a local computer to be diagnosed and repaired from a remote computer location. The CRASH REPAIR BOX is particularly useful in situations where the local host computer has failed to properly BOOT. Using a memory and memory controller, software for a particular user platform, such as WINDOWS XP.TM. or WINDOWS 2000.TM., will be loaded from the remote computer into the CRASH REPAIR BOX and stored in the memory. The BIOS in the local host computer is then reconfigured to BOOT from the memory in the CRASH REPAIR BOX. Thus, utilizing the platform software stored in the memory of the CRASH REPAIR BOX, the local host computer will be able to properly and fully BOOT. Once the local host computer is able to fully BOOT from the software stored in the memory, further diagnostics and repairs can then be conducted.
