How to Troubleshoot a NTFS.Sys Blue Screen Error
Windows XP SP2 encounters a problem in which the NTFS driver becomes corrupted by another operating system application that decides to write over the driver at some point in time. This happens quite rarely, meaning you might never encounter the problem again after fixing the situation. Your NTFS driver tells your operating system how to scan, read from and write to your hard drives. Because you cannot boot up your operating system at all without a proper version of the NTFS driver, you must use the recovery console included with your operating system's installation disc.
