I am running Windows XP. When i turn on the computer it gets to a screen
where it lists the devices and then says 'verifying dmi pool data. cd to
boot...' the cursor is flashing but the keyboard doesn't respond.
If i press the reset button the computer generally boots up fine (though
sometimes it doesn't!).
Is there anything i can do. I tried putting the windows disk in the dvd
drive but it doesn't auto load. am i going to have to get a start up disk
from somewhere? should i enter in safemode (f8?) and the computer will fix
itself? i hope i don't have to load a missing system file
any thoughts would be MUCH appreciated.
