    I wondering if anyone ever came across this error using windows xp, and if so how do you fix without reinstalling winxp. One night I left my computer on downloading something and when I woke the next day my computer was frozen and instead of turning it off my dumb A#$ left it running and when I came back 2 hours later there was an error message on my screen " ntoskernal.exe error
    file missing or corrupt
    please re-install file


    any feedback will help

    it put me at the command prompt I tried to do the following but no luck:

    copy windows\ntoskernal.exe c:windows

    no luck
