I need help my system crashed

I was playing a racing game with all of a sudden my computer rebooted. I rebooted and then when I tried to run the any program the not less than or equal to blue screen would pop up for just a second. Now when i try to boot is says that ntfs.sys is not there and to use the repair tool. Unfortunately the repair tool is messed up too. I booted to a dos disk but the windows folder does not show up on the c: drive when I do a dir. Does this have anything to do with the fact that it is a ntfs file system? I am running winxp and it has been fine for 6 months. I have a ibm hd but i used the utility and it said it was fine. What should I do and what do you think? Thanks!!!
 
You can't boot a DOS disk and see an NTFS volume. You need to run NTFS chkdsk if you can, after booting the system in what ever mode you can get it to boot in. Alternatively, you might try using the original Norton Utilities bootable CD and run Disk Doctor on the problem volume directly from the CD.
 
You can also try to repair the installation of windows: boot with the WinXP CD and fix it... it should work!
