It started with ntoskrnl.exe missing or corrupt... Thursday, September 25, 2003 at 10:16 am Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Sam (7 messages posted) Well... actually it first started yesterday with this error... "Stop 0x00000077" or "KERNEL_STACK_INPAGE_ERROR" I thought I had cleared that up, and everything seemed to be running fine this morning. Then the same Stop message appeared again. When I rebooted the ntoskrnl.exe error appeared. I couldn't get past it so I tried booting up off of a floppy to see if I could replace the ntoskrnl.exe file or "fix" the boot.ini file. I was able to boot up via floppy, but when I tried to access the C Drive, it just froze. I rebooted and then I received a message that I would have run fdisk to create a partition because none existed on the C Drive. I didn't do it. Instead I tried rebooting again. This time I was able to see the C Drive, and I was even able to open the boot.ini file in the editor. Nothing was wrong with boot.ini, but the machine froze while I was trying to exit the file. Has anyone run into anything like this? Is it a hardware issue? Is my hard drive just dying on me? Thanks for any help... :) Responses to this message: re: It started with ntoskrnl.exe missing or corrupt...
