on an older system I get " windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt windows/systems32/config/system"
I have this computer setup with another hard drive in case this this occurs and I get the same error message after booting from the other hard drive. I tried booting on the other hard drive and get the same error.

I tried booting from the windows xp cd and nothing happens after "loading windows".

I reseated memory, corsair, replaced the video card, enermax power supply seems to be . Blew out the dust.

Ideas?

Update: Fix'd, bad memory stick.
