hello all computer geeks,i am not a software savvy,just a regular user
who uses system for information and some entertainment.
i call out for help,i have not used my laptop for 2 months now


let me tell you about my problem.

i dont know what happened but my system is not booting,doesnt starts,and
a message is displayed when i turn on "system 32 files missing,insert disc".

i dont know what to do.
my laptop disc drive doesnot work.only option is to boot via usb.
