Re: Windows can not load

Visit my website http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org Click the Win XP Faq
button and take a look at quesion 36. Now you need to use the recovery
console which you don't have (this is not available on restoration disks). A
way around the problem is to download the 6 Windows XP setup floppy disks
and use this to install recovery console. You can download these from
www.bootdisk.com. Make sure you download the correct disks for your
operating system - either XP Home or XP Pro. If you don't have a floppy
drive, then you may have to restore your sysetm from scratch using your
restoration disk.
