Windows XP suddenly won't start up at all, saying it is
missing or corrupted improtant files such as
\windows\system32\confi\system.

So i follow the advice on
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;en-us;Q307545

however, i cannot complete this becase i get "cannot copy
files" or "access is denied" even though there is no
administrater password.

What is going on and how can i fix this? I did do a
complete hard drive format and reinstall, 2 weeks ago, but
problem has happened again.

Repeated registry corruption for no apparent reason is a sign of hardware
trouble. Prime suspects are RAM and hard drive but it could be other system
components as well. Overclocking a system can also increase the chances of
this kind of Windows damage.
