Ok, so here's the story...
So yesterday I tried booting up my desktop (XP Home) which I just installed after a reformat and it started up fine, went to the desktop, and then as soon as it came up, the computer rebooted. "Well that's strange" i said, and simply rebooted. It came up fine again, but then did the same thing. So on the 3rd time, windows came up and stayed up. I then went on doing whatever I had to do.
I then tried to run a defrag using DK7, but said that there were some errors and that I should run chkdsk. So I used chkdsk \F to check it next time i booted. So apparently I had some huge thing wrong so that it gave a new security cert to every single file on C: (30,000 some files...so chkdsk ran for a while).
Now BIOS will load, but then an error comes up 'NTDETECT Failure' (or something of the like) flashes and then the comp reboots. So i can't boot into windows...crap...
So I can get into recovery console, but I have no idea what to do from there. I assume that i have to replace the NTDETECT file, but like i said, no idea how to do it. Any help is MUCH appreciated
