windows wont load on my laptop anymore..it sits at the windows xp rolling bar
with no result.. wont start in safe mode or anyother mode either (just sits
then restarts)
i tried doing a reinstall repair of windows and a bunch of file came up with
a error that they couldnt be deleted... it recommended i hit 'esc' to
continue..
so i kept hitting 'esc' then it reached a point that said it couldnt create
/windows/security/templates folder... told me to retry or exit... no luck
with the retry so i exited...
any advice ?? im so lost..

Download a drive diagnostic utility from the drive manufacturer's web site.
That will create a bootable floppy or CD. Boot from that and run the
diagnostics.

Also check the memory. Download at least two of these diagnostic utilities.
As above they will start from a boot floppy or CD. Run at least two and let
each one run for a long time, not just a single pass.
