I have a Windows 2003 server w/Exchange 2003 running (or was) on a Dell 2650
RAID 5 environment. Upon a re-boot I got the error "Windows could not start
....file missing or corrupt \system32\drivers\ntfs.sys.

I renamed ntfs.sys to ntfs.old and cpoied the file from the installation
disk vis recovery console, yet upon re-boot I get the same error.

Is the only option an in-place repair?
 
Hello JM_Metal,

Before playing around you should create an image from the server, to have
always a point to go back if something goes wrong during your search.

Check out this one, should help you, even if 2003 is not mentioned:
