boot from your XP install CD (aslong as its not a pre-installed shitter)

boot into the recovery console, type in the admin password

Went to turn on my computer yesterday morning after work only to get the following come up on a blue screen .......

***STOP : 0x0000007B ( 0x817F2BDO, 0 x C0000032, 0 x 00000000, 0 x 00000000)
INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE

If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps :

Check for viruses on your computer.
Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers.
Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated.
Run CHKDSK/ F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.

Refer to your Getting started manual for more information on troubleshooting Stop errors.

The computer will go no further than this screen.

Help please i'm a computer numbnut :(
