mine did that, i put the recovery disc in

copy the boot files from the cd into the window directry

try safe mode with command prompt then when the command promp apears type chkdsk /x

start windows normally

must be the weather
my aunt's pc just bit the dust
needs format c:

:lol: glad it aint mine

So when ya select start windows normally, it comes up with win xp loading screen, then resets??

boot-looping...

the boot.ini file is feked... only way to sort it is to boot from an XP cdrom, select recovery console & then do chkdsk to fix the drive (chkdsk /? will give you options to use)

Other than that... if you have no CD, you will need to do a recovery, which will remove EVERYTHING you had on there!

even if you take it back to the shop, they will just do a recovery either way & you will still lose everything if they do that

format c: :D
if that fails then recovery disk

left on for a hour or so and returned to this here

i can choose any of them but they do damn all but come to the "windows xp" then the wee loading thing..

any idea's?
