cisco 1751 won't load startup config

Just another strange issue. Cisco 1751 wouldn't load startup config, no errors, just defaulted to an empty running config and kept prompting to run through the setup wizard.

turns out the configuration register was set to 0x142. After issuing the following commands:
config-register 0x2102
end

Reloaded and the router successfully picked up the startup config. I'm not sure how this register pointer was changed. It's fixed now!
