[bluebell18]

ok so i boot windows xp and it keeps rebooting im good up until i have to fix the problem with the windows repair after i push R i dont get a administrator password thing all i get is a command prompt and when i try to type
COPY X:\i386\NTLDR C\:
COPY X:\i386\NTDETECT.COM C:\
where X is the drive letter for my CD drive.
it says files cannot be found or something similar.
and i was also wondering if i typed enter after each one or not i've tried both ways but still says files are missing HELP!!
