Hi! I have a computer problem. I can't turn on my computer. It said the System32 is either corrupted or missing. I have the reboot CD and I put it in but it would not go to the screen(desktop) so I can not reboot the computer! Please help me! This computer is very slow but the other one is fast! Thank you if you reply!
P.S. The computer was made by my cousin I think. The reboot CD is on a CD Rom.

Buhbuh, I think you've got some other issues but on the reboot problem maybe you could try the program CD (windows XP?) and ensure the boot sequence is set so the disk drive is the first to boot. Then get to the setup screen and hit enter, NOT repair. When you get to the next screen then hit repair and it will reload all the basic drivers for you. If I understand your text, you've got some emergency boot disk your cousin made you...that won't fix your problem(s).
