When you are prompted to do so, type the Administrator password. If you have a dual-boot or multiple-boot computer, select the installation that you want to access from the Recovery Console. When the "Welcome to Setup" screen appears, press R to start the Recovery Console. Insert the Windows XP startup disk into the floppy disk drive, or insert the Windows XP CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive, and then restart the computer.Ĭlick to select any options that are required to start the computer from the CD-ROM drive if you are prompted to do so. To complete part one, follow these steps: What I did was booted in the Recovery Console using a Win XP Home CD (a home CD will let you fix Home or Pro apparently.) I used the following process to get the computer to a workable state:
It, seems the Windows registry controls this restart looping process. I read a lot of posts from various forums but in the end tried my own method for fixing the problem which has fixed other Windows issues in the past.
ive read about possibly doing a repair install? how does that work, would it work, and would it save my data? is there another option? thanks in advance. What should I do? I dont want to have to reinstall windows xp and lose my data as I have some important documents and music mp3s on it. but after pressing the "disable automatic restart on system failure" option, I got this error message on the "blue screen of death" (this happened after the light blue xp loading screen instead of it restarting like it usually does): last known configuration and safe mode dont seem to work but I may have not done them correctly im no computer whiz. after reading other forums, I tried the F8 method but couldnt seem to make it work. the computer manages to get to the light blue windows xp loading screen but instead of entering my desktop the computer reboots and the whole process starts over again. it seemed to install the update fine but after I restarted my computer I couldnt seem to get to my desktop. the problem happened after I installed the windows service package 2 (i know, im a little behind). I have an intel pentium 4 desktop computer.
