empty statement does nothing, 'missing statement' is an error-message from the compiler, eg: { if (x==2) } corrected version: { if (x==2); }
reinstall windows, it depends on which operating system you have or computer manufacturer you have. on hp , tap the f11 key until it says " loading files" then go to system restore and restore your computer to the original factory condition. that's all. or if you bought this operating system, return if get another one. or else, its illegal and cracked. another thing if you have a warranty get it in for check up its going to be free, possibly ;] hope this helps;]

It's VERY hard. Only way is software.
Missing or corrupt boot sector
Mine has suddenly started doing this too. A required Microsoft Windows system directory, the Windows System32 directory is often located in either C:\Windows\System32 or C:\Winnt\system32. Often many Microsoft Windows error messages will contain the system32 directory because many of the system files Windows uses to run are stored in this directory. By itself the System32 directory will not cause any errors unless it is missing of course. If you are getting an error with a file in the System32 directory search for that file. No error message, it just pops up and has to be 'closed'
You would not be able to boot your PC, or the PC would boot on a drive other than expected. Or you might get the BIOS message that the operating system is missing.
NTLDR is a boot up (software) problem the file may be corrupt or you may be booting from the wrong disc. Check out the web page at computerhope.com below there is extensive information on troubleshooting for this problem.
The boot record will not boot anymore or more precisely the message "NTLDR is missing" will be displayed. To remedy this situation boot with a copy of windows and use the "Recovery Console" in the boot menu and at the command prompt type the following: fixmbr and hit enter. Although there is a risk, there isin't much else you can do.
I think you mean C:/WINDOWS/System32/mtsalvp.dll The directory C:/WINDOWS contains the operating system files, and System32 is an especially dangerous folder to mess with. If this file is missing or damaged, you can fix it by using your original Windows install disks. They would have come with your computer. If this isn't your problem, add some more information below my answer and I'll try to help more.
In my case Autoexec.nt was missing from the C:\WINNT\System32 directory. Looking in the C:\WINNT\Repair directory I found that Windows had automatically made a backup copy of Autoexec.nt, so I just copied this into C:\WINNT\System32 and the problem was fixed.

go to www.dll-files.com and you can download your missing file after searching for it on the web site then from where ever you saved it to copy then paste the file under WINDOWS>system32 directory in your hard drive (go to my computer and click on local disc) then run the program and then it should work perfect
