Whenever i turn my computer on and windows xp loads i see
the "system has encounter a siriouse error", and there is
an option to send or not to send. Than it restarts in
approx. 3 sec so i can't do anything.

I have also tried to boot windows in safe mode but the
same proccess occurs.


Also i tried to reinstall windows xp using the 6 floppy
disk and windows xp disk. Unfortunately when installation
asks for the 5th disk and reads it it says that "file
ntfs.sys is corrupted" and whole system restarts again.
 
I would advise you to do a virus scan. From what you
describe you have a virus in your system.
 
I will scan my hard drive on my friend's computer.

However the ntfs.sys file is not on the hard drive , it is
on the floppy. It is read by the installation program as
corrupt and the installing process stops.


thank you for your advice
