Infinite boot up loop.

[Guest]

Right, after purchasing diskeeper pro premier for nearly 2 weeks, all was
good, then I decided to do a boot time defragmentation.

During the process, something seems amiss, too quick almost, I booted up
fine, my ZA security suit prompt me to allow diskeeper to set a process to
run each time on boot up.

After that, I attempted to defrag, however it says I have sceduled dskchk,
so I rebooted...

After that, nothing works, it keeps trying to reboot, safe mode cannot be
entered, last known good config does nothing, onlything I can access is bios,
using the XP disc it won't get pass examining disk MB Id Bus atapi etc...

So for the love of anything, if you need to delete this, at least recreate
this some where else, and leave me a link, I've googled nearly everything to
death without solutions, and these seems to be a lot of experts here.

You should report just how far the boot process goes and what
message(s) you see on the screen before the loop recommences.
Use the Pause button on your keyboard to freeze the screen so
that you can read the messages.

you can try to
boot up with your
windows cd and into
the recovery console:

when you get to
the disk system prompt
you can run:

chkdsk
fixboot
fixmbr

the exit, remove cd
and see if you can
boot back in to the o.s.

I've already said I can't access the recovery console for some reason, it
stucks at the examining 31855 MB at 0 Id at 0 Bus atapi, or something similar.

Also, the pause/break button can't stop it at the BSOD I'm getting, it
instantly reboots once it shows up for a split second.

Anyways the sequence is the following:

Turn on the computer, shows the usual info.
Prompts you to chose one of the 5 options, neither of which works.
Attempts to boot up, showing the Windows XP screen with the 3 blue boxes
moving, then a BSOD shows for a split second, and computer reboots.

If booting with your WinXP CD won't get you past the point
of motherboard examination then I suspect a hardware problem.
The ZA/Diskkeeper actions probably coincided with that
problem rather than causing it. I would ask your friendly
computer dealer to examine the machine.

well, if you have a
windows setup cd
that is bootable, then
you should be able
to bypass the errors
and get into the disk
system.

first, make sure the
cmos/bios is set to
boot from the cd, and
not directly from the
disk0 - at this time your
disk0 is non bootable so
you need to set the
motherboard to boot
directly from the cd.

then when the windows
cd begins setting up
some files, you should get
the option to install windows
or log into recovery console.

select recovery console and
follow the steps in the prior
posting.

if you can not over ride
your dysfunctional computer
with your windows cd, then
you will need to get technical
help, like Pegasus mentioned.
