ntfs.sys missing or corrupt

hi everyone,
when i boot up i get an error message that
c:\windows\system32\drivers\ntfs.sys is missing or corrupted. it suggests
that i run repair console from cd to repair.
after searching the internet i have tried allsolutions suggested.. to no
avail.
i renamed the file from .sys to .old but the file is not there . i tried
to copy it from the indtall cd but got the message "file could not be
copied".
Tried to copy the file from an other computer to a floppy but that didn't
work (couldn't read the floppy - problem with the file?)
so, any other suggestions? (i removed the RAM and air blew it and the
interior of the computer...... ) what now??

thanks!!
