I started getting "ntoskrnl.exe missing or corrupted" error message during a boot on my HP a1747c. I tried to boot it from my recovery CD to fix it, but I was not able to get a response from keyboard during "....hit any key to boot from CD".
The keyboard light flashes during power on and I was able to hit F10 to get into BIOS, but again no keys are responding beyond that once I am in the BIOS.
The sympton continues to stay even I swapped another keyboard. I even swapped the hard drive with a good one and still got the "ntoskrnl.exe missing or corrupted" again.
Anyone has a similar experience?
