windows xp was ******ed the day they released it....


anyway, if you cant get it to boot up at all, try formatting your hard drive and reinstalling.

if theres stuff you need, put it in another pc as a 2nd drive , get the stuff off it that you need, then put it back and format and reinstall.

well, thats what i would do.
