Hi, I am having some problem with opening the C: and D: drives through My Computer, i get the following message I am using Windows XP on an Acer Laptop.

"c:\resycled\ntldr.com is not a valid Win32 application"

I ran the antivirus and it detected a change in the Bootsector of Drive C: I have two partitions (50:50) and ths error comes up when i try opening both of these drives. Disk Defragmenter doesnt function and neither does the Disc Scan Tool
BELOW is the result of the CHKDSK

C:\Documents and Settings\Salmaan>chkdsk

use your windows xp disc to boot to the recovery console. Run chkdsk /r and reboot.
If that doesn't fix the problem go back into the recovery console and run sfc /scannow. You may also need to do a fixboot or fixmbr in the recovery console.
