Configuring updates... Missing or corrupt NTOSKRNL.exe

• computer won't reboot after updates missing or corrupt ntoskrl.exe

  I have a HP pavillion laptop - I have upgraded to Vista Business (so I than the cd) the computer failed to install service pack 1 for ever. He kept getting an error which is ambiguous in the research. However, one day last week he decided that it would update on its own. After the update I get a message that indicates that the ntoskrl.exe file is missing or damaged. The machine does not start without failure or other mode. I got started with the disc once. I thought that the problem has been corrected - and then I restarted the computer a few days later and it happened again. I succumbed to get it to load all the. It is said that it can not be solved. The only time where this morning, I had to complete the restore of the system, the machine has restarted and began its count of files (I think that some 97000 files + as the update of windows) and loop to the same error message. I got to a command prompt and looking for help on what to do next. Thanks in advance for your help. In addition, because I bought the Vista upgrade separately - do any free support from MS? If so - where should I call? Thanks again.

  Hi Upinthenight,

  Thank you for using the Microsoft Vista answers Forum.

  You can follow the steps mentioned below and let us know if it works:

  1. put the Windows Vista installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.

  2. press a key when you are prompted.

  3. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.

  4. click on repair your computer.

  5. click on the operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next.

  6. in the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.

  7. once we are on the command line, type Bootrec.exe /fixboot, and then press ENTER.

  Go to your second question on the support options for Windows Vista; Phone/Chat for Windows Vista support is paid but the free support for Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (SP2) is valid until November 26, 2009.

  Thank you and best regards,

• corrupt ntoskrnl.exe Vista configuration problem

  Windows Vista goes into an endless loop of updated Configuration, before he go to step 3, it will stop and restart with the message "Windows is loading files" then it trying to repair for 20 min, + manage to restore the system and return to the login screen. When I look at the log file, it states that the ntoskrnl.exe has been altered.

  I would really appreciate technical assistance to resolve this issue once and for all.  This problem seems to happen every now and then. Initially, I thought it was to do with Norton ISv10, but after the removal of this software, I still have the problem.

  Help please!

• Vista sp1 corrupts ntoskrnl.exe

  Installed Windows Vista Home Premium 32 BIT of Dell supplied DVD of resettlement on new Western Digital HDD (1 TB green SATA600 HD 64 MB) in replacement of primary transmission single partition in Dell XPS 410 with 4 GB of RAM.  Tried to update with Windows Vista Service Pac 1, downloaded from the site Microsoft Web (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/service-packs).  Both times I tried to perform the update the following appeared on the screen: "cannot start Windows.  A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.  To solve problem 1. Insert your Windows installation disc, and then restart your computer. 2. choose your language settings, and then click Next.  3. click on repair computer.  File: ntoskrnl.exe; status 0xc0000098; Info: Windows failed to load because a required file is damaged. "Completing steps 1 to 3 following the startup repair products:"Startup Repair cannot repair this computer automatically"and the details of the repair diagnosis says"C:\ntoskrnl.exe is corrupt ".  I had to do a system restore to before I tried the update for the restart of the computer.  Any idea what the problem might be with the installation of SP1?

  .. .are say you my best plan (perhaps only) action is to reformat the hard drive and upgrade to Windows 7?

  Assuming that the computer passes Win7 Upgrade Advisor with flying colors, you can format the HARD drive and then do a clean install of Win7 (which would need to buy a commercial full version of Win7) but you can not upgrade to Win7 computer (using a version upgrade from Win7) unless Vista SP1 is installed.

  Otherwise, the best solution would be to be formatting the HARD drive and then do a clean install of Vista exactly by the (my) message of reply in this thread: http://answers.microsoft.com/thread/c44429fb-3f7c-4646-8529-5a97bb3cd0eb

  Note: The computer must NOT be connected to the internet or local networks (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.

  Wish I had better news for you. Good luck!

• Vista fails to boot after SP1 update. Lack file ntoskrnl.exe

  I have Windows Vista Home Premium and has just installed SP1 upgrade.  The PC now not restart, even in safe mode.  As soon as he tries to load Vista, an error message occurs: ntoskrnl.exe missing or damaged.  I tried to boot from the resettlement drive provided by Dell, but the same error occurs.

  I ran dell seed assessment tool and the material is very good.

  What should I do to fix this file?

  Thanks in advance.

  Restore point:

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   

  If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

• Blue screen - ntoskrnl.exe was able to start: kernel missing/corrupted dxgkrnl.sys

  original title: BSOD and freezes, several errors reported, puzzled.

  Hello

  I've been struggling with trying to understand an intermittent problem for the last 3 weeks.  The problem has been around for one more month, but it seems to happen more and more often can't find the source.  I wish I could attach the dump files memory here, but don't see any option for this.  So here it goes...

  Have had this computer for 2-3 years and have not changed the material at all and only the drivers updated.

  CPU: Intel Core i7 CPU * address email is removed from the privacy *.

  Motherboard: ACPI x 64

  PowerSource: Power TX 750W.

  2 Hardrives: WDC - WD6401AALS-00L3B2 ATA

  6 GB OF RAM

  Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260

  I have wiped the two HD, reinstalled Vista.  I've updated the Vista completely.  I've updated the following drivers to their latest: graphics card, motherboard, map its (motherboard), LAN (motherboard).

  The computer crashes more often that the BSOD appears.  When it freezes, the sound plays all that was the last one on again and again and nothing does.  No data memory is dumped to the crash.  I checked with another computer that is on the network to see if she could still access shared files and that he could not.  It has frozen or gave the BSOD when just doing electronic-mail/surf net or playing dungeons and Online (DDO dragons).

  Challenges in a relationship with install/updates: SP2 would not install through normal updating, so a download and install manually.  DDO requires NET framework 1.1 to run.  Had to integrate the installation so that it can install.  Do not remember having to do in the past.  The point of freezing/BSOD is always the same before and after I did the complete wipe.

  Made the following stress tests:

  Don't use memtest 86 + (2.11 and version 4.10) x no errors, 8 longer past track.

  Used Furmark 1.8.2 V max stress test, ran all night without crashing.

  Used Video Card Stability Test (Group in stone), no problem.

  Used Seagate Diagnostics on HD, long and short no trials, no failure.

  Reported on BSOD errors:

  Ntoskrnl.exe could not start: missing/corrupted core

  dxgkrnl.sys

  driver_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL nvlddmkm.sys

  More information on these if necessary.

  I get about 5 freezes with no info to each BSOD with info.  Very hard to debug with any info.

  I've had freezes/BSOD occur minutes after the computer starts and the hours.  Have the box to open with an external fan blowing into the case.  Don't think overheating is the problem.  No overclocking ever carried out on the system.

  I'm relearning all debugging stuff, did not have to do this in a long time any help would be very appreciated.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Hello

  If you do not remove ANY power and reconnect the cables (at both ends, memory and cards)
  When possible) - in fact, remove and replace - do not just tight.

  As you re-installed Vista twice the question must be something that works with a low level
  as the BIOS, chipset of low level drivers or hardware.

  You can validate files minidumps on the SkyDrive or other file sharing sites so that they can be
  downloaded, and we will have a look. But to be honest they will reveal probably material
  or worth nothing useful, so.

  Use SkyDrive download collected files and after shot/screenshot.

  Every time I do windows update and then restart, when it configures updates that does not have the login screen, then on my laptop restarts and goes to startup repair. She does every time after that the update and I think it restore my laptop to a working state, because sometimes my files are missing, although she said that no change will be to your files. I used registry booster and there was problems 226 rate was high. When I had repaired problems I installed service pack 1 manually since it wouldn't do it through windows update. When he was made to install the same thing happens again. The problem was boot critical file c:\ntoskrnl.exe is corrupt. From start of the repair, I looked for booster registry to see if he can repair the file, but for some reason it was not on my laptop.

• My computer will not start - ntoskrnl.exe is missing

  Original title: my computer does not start upp

  my desktop does not load upward. I turned on and the following message appears.

  Windows didn't start because the following file is missing

  corrupted:

  Windows root>\system32\ntoskrnl.exe.

  Re - install a copy of the above file.

  is there something I can do?

  I don't have the boot disks.

  There were no power failure, etc.?

  The system is equipped with a CD/DVD player?

  I suspect that AVG has quarantined (effectively deleted) your way of thinking of ntoskrnl.exe file the file has been afflicted (it's perhaps), but there are copies on your system in other places, so you can simply replace the missing file.

  I would normally say that make you a XP Recovery Console bootable CD that you can create (no XP media required), but since you have XP Home Edition, which can frustrate you if you do not know the XP administrator password.  We can do the part later because it would be a good CD to have.

  Make a Hiren boot CD, boot your system on this CD and find your XP installation boot drive for a copy of ntoskrnl.exe and copy / paste the file into the c:\windows\system32 folder where it belongs.

  Places to find backups of critical files on the XP system are:

  c:\Windows\System32\dllcache

  c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\i386

  Answered in the affirmative if invited to replace the existing file.

  If that's all you need to do to get there, you should consider broadening your horizons beyond AVG antivirus antimalware if you do not have this or similar problems.

  Do you have a Hiren BootCD you can download here:

  http://www.hirensbootcd.org/

  On the left, click on download, scroll down, choose the most recent version

  The download link is a little difficult to see and find, for some reason, so here are some ideas (they seem to change around for a reason, but that might just me my interpretation).  If you can't understand it, let me know so that I can update my copy/paste route.

  On the page for the version the most recent are information pages on what has changed in the latest version.  Look to the bottom of the page and you will be on page 1 of a number of pages (1 of 2 of 9, 9, 9, 3)...  The link to download the ZIP file is on the last page that is now for version 12, page 9 (or click on the end button).

  The ZIP file is large, so the download will take probably some time to complete.  Then unzip the download to extract the Hirens.BootCD.ISO file that will be used to create your new bootable CD.

  Create a bootable CD. ISO file is not the same as simply copying the. File ISO onto a blank CD.  You must use software that includes how to burn a. ISO to a CD to create a bootable CD.

  File ZIP the Hiren is the file BurnToCD.cmd that you can double-click to launch it.  The BurnToCD.cmd will use the file BurnCDCC.exe to burn the. ISO file onto a blank CD using your existing CD burner.  You can also use your own burning software as long as your software is able to create a bootable CD. ISO file.

  More modern burning programs can create a bootable CD. ISO image.  Create a CD from an ISO image bootable is not the same as just the file on a CD burning.

  If you need a simple and CD burning, this is a free software popular software:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your new bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When starting on the Hiren's CD, you will see a menu of options.  Choose Mini XP.  It will appear while Windows is loading and you will be presented with a desktop computer that has the look and feel of the interface of Windows Explorer, you are already accustomed to using.

  Using the Mini XP, you can access Internet, maneuvering around your system, search for files, copy files, replace the files and run the scans for malware, edit the text files (like the c:\boot.ini) etc.

  There are dozens of free and useful tools included in the CD that can be used to repair your system or copy your important personal files on another device (like a USB device or an external drive) in the case where you just give up and decide to reinstall your XP (I hope that you will not make this decision).

  Do, or do not. There is no test.
