unable to start windows

[Guest]

I get an error message that says im missing <window Root>\system 32\nt
oskrwl.exe Where can I get this. Im using a friends pooter and only place
to download is to a CD. No a: drive. I can not even get into safe mode.

Oskrwl.exe returns no hits on the search engines, which usually means it's a
componrnt of spyware.

I downloaded Google Earth and when I turned off my pooter, I have been unable
to get back on it. It will stay at the Microsoft page and go no where. If I
boot from the XP disc and try to start in safe mode it goes thru all the dos
info and just stops. I tried the Restore Repair but evey password I would
ever have used will not work. Not sure what to do. It did this once before
and I got to safe mode then went back to a good date and was up and running
again.

Chack again. If it is "ntoskrnl.exe" that explains your problem in a
different light.

Yes this is the problem file. I noticed I read it wrong after I had already
typed it in. I can not go to repair because the password I enter is not
valid, I have tried all that I would have used and doesn't work. Enter and
it just goes to the same thing, enter password. You get three tries and then
your out. I copied all the kernal files from this pooter onto a disc will
that work ? Or how would I get it to load. My XP disc does have the file.
What do I do, I don't want to loose all that is on my hard drive.

Before trying anything difficult: Reboot, Press F8 (or what-you-need), and
choose "Last Known Good Configuration" rather than "Safe Mode". Or did that
already?
Otherwise, try "Enter"(the word) or "Admin" or "administrator" if the Enter
key alone isn't the Administrator Password. Even 'Spacebar' then Enter or
'Space,Backspace'.
Good luck; then Google, if the Ted Z. site can't be done.
