0xc000000f registry missing

[Rod]

I get this error when I try to boot vista
File:\windows\system32\config\system
status: 0xc000000f
Info: Windows failed to load because the system registry file is missing or
corrupt.

I tried booting from the installation cd and doing the repair opton but it
came up with the same error

Windows Vista Help What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista:
http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/help/2b3724d1-f4ad-5b26-16dc-3e9e66f4be5e1033.mspx

If System Restore fails, you will need to look into what recovery options
are provided for your system.

ROD:
I have the same problem and i have tried all recovery options, i
have had to completely re-install Windows Vista (Ultimate) 5 times now, and
every time it will work for a while then crash again

If this really is a registry problem is there some kind of
registry recovery that Microsoft officially endorses that i can trust???

I love vista but and at my max i NEED this comp for school and cant
afford to have to re-install all my software and Vista 2x a day plz help me
out here.
