I occasionally lose power at my house, and have no backup
UPS to rely on. I'm using Windows XP Pro, and when the
machine is reset after a power outage, I get an Error
message that says either you have a corrupt PCI.sys or
ISAPNP.sys file. I keep trying to reboot, but continue
running into the same message. Even pressing F8, and
running in safe mode doesn't work. I tried pressing "r"
when told to do so with my XP disk in the CD, but it
doesn't bring up a recovery screen to fix the files. For
some odd reason, after completely powering down the system
and starting the computer, it will recover after 3 to 6
tries. Is there something I can do to easily power up
after a power outage? It is very frustrating.
