the god damned nvidia video card overheated when i was updating windows XP to service pack 3 and then the computer froze so i restarted it and now it says

"Windows cannot start because the following file is missing or corrupt "NTFS.sys"


I HATE NVIDIA

i cant fix the fan because the little metal rod is stripped and it wont come on, so i have to use a portable black fan to cool the computer

im already burning a copy of windows xp to a disk

hopefully it will work, since the cd drives on the computer will only recognize certain disks

Vineshroom is basically correct.

Windows XP is abandonware now and Microsoft don't make any money from people buying second hand licenses for it.

if you really want to speed up some old computers, i suggest installing puppy linux onto them
it's extremely fast for older hardware, and seeing your previous thread that shows you have a few old PCs with pentium 3's and athlon 64's and stuff, they could definitely use an optimized and free OS

If it's a Nvidia geforce forget replacing that stuff lol.
Unless it's some unique computer, you could trashpick a better desktop or find one at a goodwills or whatever they have in America.
