Hello Tina,

You are most welcome;)

I think it will work out just fine.

I will await your findings.

Heloo Tina,

I do not know if your system is still in service pack 2 state?

But you can chanche the boot.ini anyway or in normal mode if SP1 or safe
mode if Sp2 to this:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /noexecute= AlwaysOff /fastdetect /usepmtimer

With me that solved the blue screen (reboot when an error occurs is
disabled
on my system for possible troubleshooting) and windows booted normally.

Let me know please if this solved it for you too?

Best regards,
Michel Denie

Okay, here goes the file:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn

I do appreciate this - it's driving me nuts -
Thanks

I bought a new hard drive - everythig worked great until I installed
SP
2.
It would not let my machine boot up, it just kept rebooting. I was
finally
able to get in through Safe Mode and uninstalled SP 2. My machine
worked
great. Thought it might be the hard drive, so used another that I
know
worked, same exact thing happened. I'm baffled, I have to install it
but
everytime I do, it screws up my machine. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Tina
