I was cleaning up my son's XP machine yesterday and whilst the machine was
in "safe mode" ad-aware was running. He interupted this in some manner and
when I went back to check progress, hte machine was continually re-booting.
I disabled "re-boot on fail" and the machine now boots and fails to a blue
screen which paraphrased says "can't find file Winserv".

I have my original XP install CD (SP1) for this machine, how do I fix this
mess?

Best Regards

Steve
 
Oh No - does this mean I have to apologise to a teenager?

I'll try and force XP into safemode on startup.

Thanks John
