  I got this exact same error in Windows 2000 (SP4+Security Rollup 1).

The issue was corrected by installing Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML) 3.0
Service Pack 5 (SP5) from:

  0x8007f0cc - STATUS_KERNEL_NONSTD
The core system file (kernel) used to start this computer is not a Microsoft Windows

or

Error Code:8007F0CC happens if you have changed your "boot.ini" file.

Have you created a custom boot screen, or have you used software such as Style XP to
alter your boot screen?

If you are using Style XP upgrade to the latest version. If you altered the
"boot.ini" file yourself and made a custom boot screen, just replace "boot.ini" with
the backup you made before editing it.
