Ntoskrnl;. exe that is missing or corrupt file error

I have a laptop with a ntoskrnl;. exe file that is missing or corrupted and cannot rebuild or load from cd, can I download this file somewhere, or what I can do to re - install this file and how?

Hi WEBERSCHLOTZSKY,

1. When you receive the error message?

2. did you of recent changes on the computer?

3. what happens when you try to copy the file from the Windows XP CD?

There are several reasons for this error message to occur.

This problem is often caused when the boot.ini file is missing or misconfigured. This problem often occurs when a user has recently added or removed from an operating system on the computer or added or deleted hard disk drives in the computer.

If you are unable to start Windows and the error message then consult the below Microsoft article and try the steps mentioned, check if it helps.

Error message: "Windows did not start because of a configuration of the disk of the computer problem.

  • system32\DRIVERS\pci.sys missing or corrupt file error but windows xp is already preloaded on computer when purchased

    missing or corrupt file error system32\DRIVERS\pci.sys keeps appearing. I had a problem with google chrome and then stop everything. This error appeared. It tells me to use the cr rom boot but xp was already loaded on the sony vaio that we bought a few years ago. I don't know what to do next because I don't want to lose the pictures and music, we have on the hard drive. Any help would be appreciated

    If your data is not backed up, then at some point that the data will be lost.

    Your Sony are delivered with a hidden restore partition or recovery disks, but I do not think that the Sony recovery allows to repair an installation of win, only pure install.

    You must remove the drive and it slave on another PC in order to retrieve the data, or take it to a decent repair shop for them to do it for you

  • Tried to install downloaded like mozilla and google chat .exe files but recover corrupted file error!

    I just new laptop ASUS K42F with Windows 7 Home. Tried to install the basic downloaded such as Mozilla and Google Chat programs, but continue to get the "corrupted file error (more information go to nsis.sf.net/NSIS_error). How to remedy this situation so that I can download updates etc in the future.

    Hello

    There are many different factors can be attributed to your question.  It could be your network card, a problem with your ISP, Modem, or any other number of things.  Something happens during the download process that causes your files get corrupted.  We would like a little more info to help solve your problem.

    Are you connected via a wired or wireless?
    If you are connected wireless; you could try to connect with a wire and then try the downloads.

    Who is your Internet service provider, and what kind of equipment do you use to connect to their service? 

    You may have a faulty modem.  You can call most of the suppliers and ask them to test your equipment/connection to see if it is the problem.

    You have other computers on your network?

    If the answer is "Yes"; do you have the same results as the download of files on them?

    All type of internet security applications or third-party firewall you use?

    If the answer is "Yes";  try temporarily disabling them and download your files.

    You are connected to a router?

    If you are, try to connect directly to the modem and see what kind of results you get.

    If none of this helps, please post your hardware specs so that we can give you more troubleshooting steps

  • My Cookie file was corrupted in data and my programs continually pop up with the 'corrupt file' error when a program opens, pointing to \Users\name\Appdata\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies.

    My Cookie file was corrupted in data and my programs continually pop up with the 'corrupt file' error when a program opens, pointing to \Users\name\Appdata\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies.

    The problem is, Chkdsk will not fix this, and I can't access the file. This opens up a world of problems when I need to fix this error, so I can upgrade to Windows 7. Help, please!

    I just ran the scan again. He said of the errors found, but could not be repaired.

    This problem actually has nothing to do with internet explorer. It's the cookies folder that is corrupt in the Windows folder in roaming. The error file is in conjunction with the programs, that I try to run (AIM, Skype, so forth). Trying to enter the folder it says it's corrupt. I don't know what is the root of the problems or how to solve this problem, but these measures have not helped so far. Regarding the repair, I will try that next.

  • Ntoskrnl.exe damaged or missing error

    I'm now locked in battle with the ntoskrnl.exe file corrupted on my computer. It started a week ago when I stopped, I noticed updates have been planned and so I clicked on to install updates and shut down option. Next morning all * broke loose and I'm dealing with a damaged or missing ntoskrnl.exe file. Now when I start the machine starts OK and then when the Windows boot screen showing moving green lines appear, it holds for a few seconds and then automatically start startup repair... After working on what he comes back with mode "cannot repair computer automatically, and when I ask to send the information contained in". I can't find any additional information. System restore fails due to a corrupted file. I have tried and actually started the system with the recovery in the drive but not from this date disc... maybe I'm super tired. I read that you can expand the file in the location of the recovery disc, but I get confused the guidelines regarding disk numbers. Is it possible to buy a HARD drive up, install it in the machine and then install vista on it and set the new drive as the primary drive and leave the old drive in pure storage. Or the problem would still exist? I have photos stored on the drive and more priceless family of financial records and other important documents on it as well.

    Chances are that your problem has been created by one or more Windows updates.  Almost everyone who directs that SFC found this pretty.  You can set this way:

    Most computers windows 7 who had the Windows installed KB3022345 update will produce the message of irreparable corrupted system files.  You have probably installed this month of may, 2015 update and that's the problem.

    To make things worse, it is unlikely an update that you want to, because its purpose is to make it easier for you to upgrade to Windows 10.

    While you're there, uninstall these other two updates that have similar objectives: KB3035583 and KB2952664

    1. Control Panel, uninstall a program, view installed updates.

    2. WAIT a long time until you see the green bar in high complete his journey

    3. In the search box, type KB3022345

    4. When it happens, uninstall it.

    5. Close the window

    6. Begin globe, all programs, Windows Update, check the updates.

    7. When he finally find KB3022345, right-click, choose hide.

    8. Rerun the SFC and you will find no problems

  • Start icon disappears from the taskbar. Command prompt concludes that he cannot fix corrupted files.

    My power icon disappeared from my taskbar after a reboot. Following the advice of the Forum I turned on command prompt and asked the sfc/scannow.

    After a long search, I received notification that there were a few corrupted files and not all could be fixed. This had occurred previously in 2012.

    After a security alert, security, I downloaded the program named Emet. After reading more below in the Microsoft forum, I found the comments which Emet

    may damage files. I decided to uninstall Emet. When I finished that I discovered that the Emet icon has disappeared from the taskbar along

    with the battery icons and a few other icons. I took my Asus laptop at Best Buy and the tech there called a Microsoft service don't. and

    has got instructions to restore the missing icons using the appropriate record. It was in summer 2012. When I stopped my laptop Sunday, December 21, 13

    and then reopened Tuesday, December 23, 13 I found that, once more, my power icon had disappeared from the notification area. The correspondent

    subprogrammes in the control panel for the management of the icons in the notification area were inoperative for the icon of power and a few others. This

    was the exact situation I had in 2012, about 16 months ago.

    After failing to solve the problem with the command prompt, I thought I would ask for help. For the moment, I managed without going through the power icon

    presented at the center of mobility in the office and after having pinned the control panel to the taskbar on the right.

    Hi Ronald,.

    When you first start a new computer, the operating system typically runs Startup service initializations that can take anywhere from one to six hours to finish, depending on which applications are preloaded on the computer. Make sure that you give the operating system sufficient time to finish these Startup service initializations until you stop or restart the computer. This problem generally not happen once the operating system has completed initialization of all before background services is restarted.

    I suggest you refer to the following article which has a few registry tweaks to solve the problem. Please follow the steps and check out them.

    System icons do not appear in the notification area in Windows Vista or Windows 7, you must restart the computer

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/945011/en-us

    Note: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  • My Dell Precision 370 computer not start Windows XP, due to A MISSING or CORRUPT FILE.

    The file that is missing, is a Windows root folder called > System32\hal.dll

    Since this computer Dell was bought for our children used to use, I don't have any Windows XP disk to install the missing file of root or reinstall Windows XP software.

    So, how can I get this missing windows xp root file, in order to exploit the windows xp software?

    I tried to re - start the dell computer, but nothing works!

    If someone could help me, I would appreciate it a lot.

    Is is extremely unlikely that the hal.dll file is really missing or damaged.

    It is extremely likely that XP can't find it either because the file system is afflicted or XP is told to find the file in the right place.

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a CD/DVD drive work?

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    We should first check the inetegiry of your file system and then see what then to do.

    Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

    Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

    This is not the same as recovery disks that may have come to a store to purchase the system.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    xp_rec_con. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    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 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 you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

  • Anyone receiving calls from Microsoft Windows (call center from India by the sounds of it) saying that you have a corrupted file? Or is it a scam?
