Help with boot error

[rshreenath]

When i boot my Acer Laptop, i get error WIndows could not start because
the following file is missing or corrupt
\windows\system32\config\system
suggest repair.
My acer restore disk does not allow for simple XP repair.
So i tried to use my repair on a second XP copy i had. WHen i try this,
it says Inspecting----- then suddenly dies saying - "NTDETECT failed"
So now, even with an XP disc, i cant even get to the recovery console
or repair.
So any ideas are welcome!
thanks
SHreenath
