kmshome0208 · 11-03-2008, 03:24 PM

I have small restaurant that has POS system. There are two stations one with win2000 pro/NT and other one win xp.
The main comp's power supply went dead, what I did was took one from the other comp and replaced it. I got "windows 2000 could not start because missing or currupt: ntoskrnl.exe"
I did some research and I do not understand how to get boot cd... can anyone help me to get the boot cd for this computer?

Also, I ordered power supply for secondary computer, put it in, it says " no boot device is available, strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for set up utility"
now what??

Can anyone help me with this mess?
For main computer, I only have cd driver, and the second computer there are nothing in there.. no drivers at all.

please help!!!

Do you know anything about torrents? Its probably the only way you could get hold of one, quickly. Download it, Virus Scan it, burn it, then boot up. Do you have any friends in the IT world?

As for your other machine, check you have both the power and data cable connected to and from your hard drive properly. If you do, check the BIOS by pressing F2 and check to see if it can see your hard disk.

I have no idea what that torrents is. I do not have friends in the IT world.... But I don't care if I loose all the data as long as the program (I use Restaurant Manager) is up and running and if I can only use from on computer (still better than nothing). Is there any way I can make boot cd and run the software??

Thanks!!!
