back off the oc.I get the same message when i set memory to fast."Windows cannot load because winnnt/system32/ntkernel is missing or corrupt.repair windows and try to start windows again"
repair is unneccasary as setting ram back to optimal it boots fine.

You may have to reinstall windows. The 8rda+ is pretty notorious for having the memory corrupt the registry if you push it too far. I've had it happen twice untill I found the sweet spot.

Yep, most of the time it's either the RAM or CPU oc'd too high that can corrupt the registry, as well as the system partition.

If its still corrupt, boot using the WinXP CD, and select repair. Once you get to the repair consule, run chkdsk. This SHOULD fix the problem without reinstalling.. GL.. I had to do this 100 times till i got my sys running right.
