I turn on the computer and I get taken to a black screen with white writting
that apologizes for the failure of windows xp to start and gives me options
on which mode to start from ranging from safe mode to start normal.

However no matter which option i choose it does not kick in but just goes
back to the same screen.

Whats up and how can i fix it?
