when you reboot with the original disc is your pc set to boot from cd first? Get
into bios and check that first.

hmmm what was happening when this first started? Can you boot into safe mode (tapping
F8 at bootup)? Can you get into bios, and if so, what is the boot order set at?

Is this a new install of XP or have you added hardware lately? I had the same problem
when I when from XP Media to XP pro. I removed the disk partitions and formated
to start clean and kept getting errors, this one the most often. Turns out one error
was caused be an old modem that was non-XP compatible. The ntfs.sys not found or
corrupt went away when I removed a recently added Ram module, so the RAM module was
either damaged or non-XP compatible.

I have the same error messages when I reboot my harddisk which was formatted and
setup from another PC. It is tested and works okay on another PC.
Whats wrong?
Thanks.
