| <windows root> System32\NTOSKRNL.EXE missing or corrupt
I have had my Dell computer for about a month. When I boot up I get a message saying that I can't boot up because <windows root> System32\NTOSKRNL.EXE is missing or corrupt. I get the same thing for system32\DRIVERS NTFS.SYS. I have worked with Dell to get this resolved without success. I have gone to the recovery console to try to fix this problem without success. If I try booting up after getting these messages I am able to so after about 3 trys. This is a NEW computer and I have been having this trouble since I bought it. I don't want to lose my data because I have already entered it 3 times. HELP Larry |

I would assume a new computer would be under Warranty and if you've been having trouble ever since you've had the computer, then Dell should fix it. Anyway for your information if it is of assistance? http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=314477 Error Message: Windows Could Not Start Because of a Computer Disk Hardware Configuration Problem http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;822800 "Missing or corrupt Ntfs.sys" error message when you restart Windows XP after you convert your hard disk to the NTFS file system |

| Re: <windows root> System32\NTOSKRNL.EXE missing or corrupt
The original question was asking about what to do when you receive this message: "<windows root> System32\NTOSKRNL.EXE is missing or corrupt." It appears that you gave information on how to solve the "system32\DRIVERS NTFS.SYS" message. does the instructions/websites you gave apply to both system messages? I have also received this message mysteriously last night. It was working fine yesterday morning, when i returned home that evening i got this message. I will have to try this method tonight and i'll let you know if it works tomorrow. |

| Its a QuickHeal Antivirus Error
The latest Quick Heal Antivirus detects ntoskrnl.exe as a trojan and deletes it automatically for you. Once i rebooted, i realized that it is an operating system file and that windows requires it for it boot. To fix it, just put in your original XP CD, select "R" at the recovery console, and cd to the i386 folder of the XP cd. E:\i386\copy ntoskrnl.ex_ c:\windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe this should fix it most probably. If it doesnt add another line. E:\i386\copy pci.sy_ c:\windows\system32\drivers\pci.sys Hope this helps |

| Re: Its a QuickHeal Antivirus Error
I tried AnAgile suggestion and keyed in the command below in the recovery console but the message came back: The command is not recognized. Type HELP for a list of supported commands. Has anyone else had luck reinstalling the ntoskrnl.exe file from recovery console? HELP!!! Quote:

If the ntoskrnl.exe file is distorted or missing this can also produce the error. To restore this file pursue the beneath steps.

| Re: <windows root> System32\NTOSKRNL.EXE missing or corrupt
Alondra, thank you for the reply. When I type the expand command ACCESS DENIED. The recovery console never asks for an admin password so that may be an issue. When I press R on the blue screen for recovery it goes straight in the black dos screen with the C promt. I am never asked for any passwords. Any thoughts? Thanks!!! |

If you are not getting it work with the issue of yours then i will advise you to repair the Windows. On the first screen of the installation of Windows XP just hit enter for fresh installation. Hit F8 to accept the agreement of Microsoft. Now Press R to repair the Windows. So if you can then go through the same and see whether this is working for you or not. |
