Okay folks,

i was running windows xp mce, ran good for 2 wks (after routine reinstall) then computer hung up and auto restarted one night while i was sleeping (yes the computer is on 24/7/365) and i went and checked on it the next morning and noticed that is was hung at a screen telling me that i need to replace/repair the "ntoskrnl" file i know what that file is, core file to the NT OS on windows xp.

yes i have the orginal xp cds. right now it doesnt rank that high of importance, im thinking of reloading XP Pro back on to the mahine again.
