I'm running Windows 2000, and get the message "WINNT\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEMced file is missing or corrupt" I don't have a repair disk or the original win2000 program disc, because I bought this one used. Is there some way to download the file I need to a floppy to get the laptop running again?

Thanks for the help--I ended up taking it into the shop--the tech used to work at a MS shop. my hard drive has a bunch of dead sectors and needs to be replaced--but the new one is twice the size. They're going to try to save my data, but no guarantees on that.
