Bruce, thank you for your response. My system is in a complete loop, i
have no opportunity to get into Windows to discover the Event Logs.

I have however, taken a pic of the screen and the error code is
c0000221. It isnt really that clear however it also mentions bad image
checksum.

The file kernel32.dll is possibly corrupt. The header checksum does not
match the computed checksum.

This is most of what it says, any ideas?


Can you not boot into SAFE Mode? Anyway, you might try booting from the WinXP Installation CD and using the Recovery Console to replace that one file.

If that fails, a repair installation (A.k.a. In-Place Upgrade) seems to be indicated.
