Do you mean XP indicated with some message that the file was missing or you looked in the c:\windows\repair folder and it it not there? Did you try to copy the file and the copy did not work? Did you actually look in the c:\windows\repair folder? If you actually look in the c:\windows\repair folder, what files do you see?

the name of the file is called system. its in the folder C;\windows\system32\config and the back up was supposed to be located in c:\windows\repair but its not there. The system is unbootable and i found out the file is missing from ubcd4win.
