Corrupted system file

[Daphne Eze]

When I boot the computer I get a message that says
"Windows could not start because the following file was missing or corrupt
c:\windows\system32\config\system"

This is the second time this has happened in a month. The first time I
reinstalled everything. Does anyone know why this would be happening?


Cheers
