Boot into Safe mode with Command Prompt – Keep Pressing F8 at start-up then with the arrow keys select Safe mode with Command prompt . 2 . At the command prompt, type C:\windows\system32\restore\rstrui . exe Press Enter . Follow the instructions given to perform the System Restore process . OR from a site I googled -- If the ntoskrnl . exe file is corrupt or missing this can also generate the error . To restore this file follow the below steps . 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 .	wainuitech (129)

However it has a R button for Repair for commands which i don't have a clue to use it. Any different ideas?	grahic (12930)

OR from a site I googled -- I tried that, didn't work it won't let me go into the command prompt as it doesn't allow to me to do anything unless if i use the options from the Cd above and plus i also tried type the command when i insert the cd inside and choose repair . As i type the commands, nothing happens .	grahic (12930)
