I have a problem with my ntoskrnl.exe file missing or corrupt and someone on this board said to try this!
1. Insert the Microsoft Windows XP CD. Note: If you have a recovery CD or a restore CD and not a Microsoft Windows XP CD it is likely the below steps will not resolve your issue.
2. Reboot the computer, as the computer is starting you should see a message to press any key to boot from the CD. When you see this message press any key.
3. In the Microsoft Windows XP setup menu press the R key to enter the recovery console.
4. Select the operating system you wish to fix, and then enter the administrator password.
5. Type expand d:\i386\ntoskrnl.ex_ c:\windows\system32
6. You will then be prompted if you wish to overwrite the file type Y and press enter to overwrite the file.
7. Type exit to reboot the computer.
I put in a windows xp cd and I get nothing but the black screen of death!
I have selected to boot from cd in the menu that I can access from pushing f10 at startup but nothing works, there is something in one of the menus about restore from disket I selected that and its for a flopy? This is a brand new windowsxp cd that I just bought at this point and time I dont even care about any files that I might lose I just want my pc to work again! How can I reload window if I cant get to the windows setup menu???????
