Hi

My MS Word 2000 crashed yesterday and just after I did my
duty and sent the report via the web my system crashed
completly. (I have a HP laptop - Athlon 4 -XP Home -
purchased in Nov 2001)

I turned off my machine and then tried to reboot. After
much time a message came up saying that my ntoskrnl.exe
was missing or corrupted and that I needed to reload it.

Problem is that the only way to reload it seems to make
me re-format my whole disk using the HP provided Restore
disk. Does anyone know af a way I can boot into my
machine and simply copy the bad files over???

The ntoskrnl.exe on a seperate system is about 1.8 MB so
that will add to the fun.

Thanks

Kevin Bolster
