Okay, my girlfriends computer has been having a lot of trouble lately. It has been resetting on its own sometimes, certain programs have stopped working, sometimes the computer won't respond...
And just now, she recieved a message along the lines of this after having turned off her computer for the day, then went to turn it back on:

"Windows could not start because the following files are missing or currupt:
/Windows/System32/config/system
You can attempt to repair this file by starting windows setup by inserting the original windows setup CD rom
select r at the first screen to start repair"

Obviously the above does not sound good, but... I'm kind of hoping this situation is not completely irrepairable. If anyone can help IMMEDIATELY, with ways to preserve the files on her computer, please respond and help to the best of your abilities.
Thank you.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
