Exclamation Emergency! Help needed...


Hello Folks,

I am fairly new to Linux and recently upgraded to Mandrake 10.0 Official from 9.1, works like a charm. Sadly when I tried to boot back into windows to work on my class project I received the following error:

"
Windows 2000 could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
<windows 2000 root>\system32\ntokrnl.exe.
Please re-install a copy of the above file.
"

This appears after my "windows" selection in lilo but before any windows graphics show up.

My plan for now is to see if any of you have tips or can send me a copy of this file from any 2000 machines you may have. My email I use for such things is askjeffro@aol.com. (Don't hold the AOL thing against me, its my spam account.)

Thanks in advance for any help, I really need it!
Jeff

Thank you very much for the assistance. I forgot about looking there in the tension of the moment. I'll give it a go.
