STOP 0x0000006F During System Initialization
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=153742

Error Message:
STOP: 0x0000006F (parameter, parameter, parameter, parameter)
SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/w2kmsgs/1216.asp

System or Boot Disk Listed as Dynamic Unreadable in Disk Management

[[Typically there is a problem with a device driver or with a missing or
corrupt system file used during Windows startup.]] That would probably be
MUP.SYS.

This is not my area of expertise, but I am wondering if you sent/copied an
image file to this PC?

For example, I seem to recall that you can send an image from a laptop to a
desktop, but not from the same desktop to the same laptop.

You may want to peruse this web page if it is applicable.

Also, MUP.SYS is described at
http://www.windowsitpro.com/Windows/Articles/ArticleID/4907/pg/2/2.html
scroll down to the paragraph named Resource Name Resolution

I seem to recall it may also be a registry setting (do not recall which one)
or perhaps a problem with a USB port/driver.

This web page explains how to recover from a corrupted registry.

Finally, have you viewed the thread at
http://groups-beta.google.com/group...s+boot+registry&rnum=8&hl=en#ffb4a1a91cb2e217
There are some good comments about MUP.SYS that would mean more to you since
you obviously have the inside knowledge.

Good luck as you may have your hands full with this one.

You did not actually say whether you could boot into <Safe Mode>. If you
can't, then you almost certainly have a hardware issue. Try booting from the
XP disk. You have to set your BIOS to boot from CDRom. If you cannot boot
from the system disk, at this stage, I'd suspect a faulty processor, and I'd
have it checked out.

proceedure and selected repair twice, i am still unable to boot up in any
mode.
