My pc has been having major problems and I tried opening safe mode to download adaware and spybot to try and fix the problem and right after selecting safe mode to start a black screen appeared with this typing:

Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
<windows root>\system32\ntoskrn1.exe.
Please re-install a copy of the above file.

So it wouldn't let me into safe mode. what does this message mean and how can I fix it?

Foulplay you have two posts on this forum that deals more or less with the same problem. Please keep it to one post, it'll be easier and sane to handle your situation that way.

You have been to Kazaa, as mentioned on your other post, you need to handle that first and foremost. Please read your other post.
