Windows won't restart after interrupting system restore. Keeps coming up saying windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: System32\drivers\pci.sys Can someone please help me? Thanks

Interupting a system restore is bad news, you will probably have to do a system repair using the original Windows install disk.

You probably interrupted the restore while that file was loading, corrupting that file. A windows repair should fix that.
