W2K "ntoskrnl.exe"

After installing the SP4 I restarted the computer and got
the message that I should reinstall the ntoskrnl.exe.
This seemed to be a problem as the emergency disks just
wanted to reinstall W2K
I have the Win CD but when I booted from the CD there was
no way of getting at the CD files. I read Microsoft
Knowlege based article 119467! Who are these articles
written for? I am only a fluid power engineer! I have no
idea what to do based on this article.
I eventually installed the OS on the computer again
although I did not want to over write the data.
I have been able to salvage the data. I would now like to
get the system up and running again preferrably without
having to reinstall all the applications.
I have tried copying the file from the new WINNT/system32/
to the old WINNT/system32/ folder but it did not work. It
has been suggested that the SP4 "ntoskrnl.exe" is diferent
from the old one OR that I will have to rewrite
the "boot.ini"
Well now I am really lost. Can you help? One step at a time
Thank you
Michael
The machine is a Sony PCG XG29 it has 13gig 526 RAM and
should be running Windows 2000
