In Windows 2000, I'm getting the following error message
during boot-up:

STOP: c0000218 {Registry File Failure}
the registry cannot load the hive (file)
\SystemRoot\System32\Config\SOFTWARE
or its log or alternate
It is corrupt, absent, or not writable

I was having no problems, but all of a sudden, I can't
boot. The only thing regarding this I found on the
Knowledge Base was regarding a SCSI drive, which I don't
have. PLEASE HELP!
