My Operating System will not load when I turn my computer on and instead it goes to the black screen where it asks if I want to use my last settings that worked or if I want to start in safe mode etc., well nothing works :tazz: and what it does is try to load but then a blue screen pops up briefly and states that:
windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
\WINDWOS\system32\config\SYSTEM

I tried running the recovery cd but that did not work either ;) and it is the only cd that came with my laptop(Toshiba Satelitte). If anyone else has had this problem and has suggestions on what to do, I would love to hear from you! ;)
