re boot error

[Jack Tyler]

Win XP sp3
When I boot my system I get error -- Windows/System32/Config/System .
Thats all it says when I try to boot up windows. The following file is
missing or corrupt Windows/System32/Config/System...

XP Pro
Home Built PC
Athlon 2800
Gigabyte 7NNXP board
XFX 6800 XTreme AGP 256mb DDR3 Motherboard
Watercooled EXOS I

I reloaded XP Pro OEM cd onto my HD about 3 weeks ago and the same thing
just happened again. This is the 3rd time that this has happened this year,
Could it be the OEM XP Pro cd causing this problem? It dosen't have the
Repair option on the CD so I have to reload XP and they are tired of me
activating XP 3 times allready.
I can just buy a new XP Pro cd if you think this is the problem.
Thanks Guys

Seems like there is a lot of this going around. See:
