If you don't have a boot disc you need to beg borrow or steal one to replace the missing system files.
The worrying part is what caused it to happen,fatal system crash or a virus are both possibilities.
I also read that using an aftermarket partition tool can cause this error.
Of course if you have another 'pooter running 2k you could make a boot disc on it.
Good luck,hope someone else can be of more help.
