Default Image Kernel32.dll bad checksum, please help!
Hi,

Im not a very technical laptop owner who after a recent defrag has been presented with the blue screen of death and the following message;

STOP:c0000221 (Bad Image Checksum)
The image kernel32.dll is possibly corrupt. The header checksum does not match the computed checksum.

I have tried starting in dos mode by pressing f8 and have gone through all of the options it offers but I have had no joy in getting this to reboot. I have the Recovery CD's but can't get the CD-ROm drive to boot.

I have loads of stuff for work on this machine that I havent got round to backing up (I know, bad bad move), Can anyone please help, I'm terrified of losing all this info!!

TIA
Skinner
