I have now had this problem 4 times and each time I have
restored my computer according to the "microsoft standard
procedure". This is all good that I can bring my system
back without losing anything.
But please someone tell me how I can stop it happening
again.

Thankyou for your help.

Which procedure have you been using? This is the one I've seen:


To fix the "windows\system32\config\system file is missing or corrupt"
where Xp won't boot:

Go to Recovery Console and type:

cd system32\config
ren system system.old
ren system.alt systemalt.old
copy c:\windows\repair\system
copy c:\windows\repair\regback\system
exit
