Xp Pro Install Problems

[fluff34567]

hi all, i installed xp pro (but had to upgrade from 98 as it wouldnt work as a boot cd) anyway i had a few messages during the install
1: missing couri.ttf - just a font file i believe
2: missing ntkrnlpa.exe - important i think

the rest of the install went fine, it rebooted ok a few times during the install then after one reboot i got a message along the lines of: "missing or corrupt ntoskrnl.exe windows can not load, please reinstall the required file press any key to restart" so when i press a key the computer just does a restart and i get the message again!!!

any ideas as to what i could do please????? any help would be great.

thanks R

ok - just found out that it has to do with the boot screen - wierd as i had the boot screen come up loads of times - it only happened after i did a software update...... why????? could someone email me the file? or whats the next best thing to do??
