With no warning and no changes on my part my windows xp
professional cannot boot up.

The message is PEN_LIST_CORRUPT

stop 0x0000004e.

I have restarted, restarted in safe mode, attempted to
restore to two different dates and the same message
appears.

Am desperate, help!

Many thanks.
 
The most likely cause of that is some driver corrupting memory. A second
possibility is also a hardware problem.

I recommend sending the error report to MS when the OS prompts you to do so.
The dump file will get analyzed against know failures, and if the cause of
the problem is detected, you'll receive information about which driver
should be updated.
