My neighbor is asking me to check his computer. It's showing this message on a black screen windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt c;\windows\system32\system. NO DISK WITH XP Professional. It will not let me go in safe mode. What could you do if it want boot to windows?? I hope someone can help with this problem. Thanks in advance.

I have only one more question. How are you suppose to do this if you can't get windows to load? I have tried to go in to f8 mode and it want let me go in because of the initial problem i can get in to the options mode and advance but i am lost from there. Also I have made a copy of what the Microsoft guide help but don't know how to use because I can't get into the computer. Please can some one give a go ahead on what to do please. I really would appreciate it. Thanks very Much.
