  1. Same thing I that would have done. :lol:

     

    I have no clue whats wrong with your pc. Ill see what I can find.

     

    Edit:

     

    At least with a boot disc you could start system restore through dos.

    I had system restore turned off anyway. :mellow:

     

    Think i'll just give up and format, I still have 2nd December's backups on my external disk.

  2. I've added the C: drive as a slave drive to this computer to try and get my documents off it before I put it back in my PC and format it. But I get access denied when I try to open my user account on it. Anyone know a way to open it?

  3. Is explorer.exe running? If not try starting it by going in the process manager and going to file>Run(new task)

     

    Or try pressing F5 untill you get to the safe mode screen. See if you can boot to regular safe mode and change the setting.

    The screen is black - can't see anything.

  4. I changed the settings in msconfig to minimal boot. Now when I boot up the PC I get the Windows XP booting screen then it just goes blank - nothing on the screen. How do I fix this so I can see the screen again?

     

    I'm on a different PC writing this. Thanks. :(

  5. Why not go to Run - msconfig - Boot.ini (something like that) - tick safe mode.

     

    apply/O.K it, then it will give prompt to restart. To get out of safe mode, do the same again, just untick the box.

    I'll try that but I think it will just do the same as now e.g. hang.

  6. I can't start my XP machine in Safe Mode, when I press the right 'F' key for Safe Mode all I get is a load of numbers and symbols scrolling up the screen but it never loads into Safe Mode. This has always happened ever since this install of XP in April. Anyone know a fix?
