error code 7

[m1ck]

hi all, can anyone help me with this problem i have made a winlite boot cd which boots up.

After a short while though an error appears saying:-

File \i386ntkrnlmp.exe could not be loaded

the error code is 7

any help would be much appreciated

are you sure it said \i386ntkrnlmp.exe? if it did then there is a prob with the software your using, the correct path is \i386\ntkrnlmp.exe!

I just had the EXACT same error while re-installing Windows XP Pro SP2. I tried memory, bios settings, another disc, know what it was?

A bad cd-rom drive!

Just letting you know what fixed my problem.

i had this problem when I tried loading my machine when it was overclocked. Ran fine overclocked but would not install the os that way.

Sounds like one of these:

1. Bad WinXp Cd

2. Bad Cd-Drive

3. Bad IDE cable

And lastly maybe a bad HDD, however this option is not suerp likly...but one to investigate
