booted up tday and got a bad error, ntfs.sys is not there or missing. Windows told me to run chkdsk /f, when I typed that into the rescue command line, it said that that was not a command. So I typed chkdsk /r. Ever gotten this error? and will chkdsk /r fix it?
 
Run cmd and type sfc /scannow
 
I the error apears after windows is loaded but before the GUI is on. DO you mean to type that in the rescue command?
 
Ref: NTFS Problem

You probably have one or many system files corrupt. Please do a repair installation. The procedure is to boot from XP CD and enter 'R' the second time around after you press to install XP. This may take some time as the XP would copy all the relevant files and install but keeping your data intact.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
