An error message on my daughter's laptop says "One of the files containing
the system's registry data had to be recovered by use of a log or alternate
copy. The recovery was successful." Windows opens then crashes; this scenario
is repeated ad nauseam. As my daughter (in Australia) is off to work in South
Africa in under 48 hours, urgent help is needed!
Lap top is a mid-range 14-month old Core2 Duo with XP SP2. I ran Windows
Update when she returned home a few days ago. The problem began a day or two
later. No restore point set manually.
 
try to boot in safe mode. restart the computer and keep tapping F8 or F5. you
will will get windows advance option menu.select safe mode and check.
 
Thanks, Girish. Started in safe mode, ran check disk, started without error
message but continued to crash. Now running hard drive self test ...
