Hello,
Hi,
My windows XP won't start. I shutted down the computer yesterday, today when I started it it will run till the windows boot screen, when the bar reaches the end the screen will stay black and nothings happens
I tried to boot in safe mode but after loading the drivers it just stays there as well and wont go on with the boot.
I wanted to repair the system with the Windows XP CD-ROM but I'm not given the option to repair. After it starts all the devices needed, i'm presented with the partitions I have on my PC to choose in which to install windows, if I pick one I can format and install or just install.
Is there a way to run a repair or a scandisk to try and solve the problem without re instaling windows?
Really appreciate any help.
Thank you in advance

If that one is not working do a Parallel installation of Windows XP and back up all your personal data. So that you will not lose any of your data like Images, Videos etc. Find the step by step instructions with screen shots here
