Ok, I need some major help. Here is what I did to screw up my computer. I was tryingto install some software and upon installation, I was getting an error. I looked up the error and it was related to an outdated version of the Shell32.dll file I was using. I am currently running Windows NT 4.0 SP6. Well, I tried to copy a newer version of the Shell32.dll file to the system and now it is saying its corrupt and it will NOT boot. Here's more bad news. I don't have the Windows NT Install CD. I do have the 3 Setup floppies as well as the ERD. However, none of that seems to work. I have valuable data on the drive that I cannot lose. Please someone help!

Here is the error message that I am receiving in case it helps. STOP c0000221 {Bad Image Cheksum} The image Shell32.dll is possibly corrupt
