Hello, I turned on my computer the other day and Windows
XP would not correctly start. I received a message that
said "We are sorry for the inconcvenience, but Windows did
not start successfully. A recent hardware or software
change might have caused this. If your computer stopped
responding, restarted unexpectedly, or was automatically
shut down to protect your files and folders, choose last
known good configuration to revert to the most recent
settings that worked. If a previous startup attempt was
interrupted due to a power failure or because the power or
reset button was pressed, or if you aren't sure what
caused the problem, choose start windows normally."
It then gives me options to choose from:
Safe Mode
Safe Mode with Networking
Safe Mode with Command Prompt
Last known good configuration
Start Windows Normally
I've tried all of these options, but after I click each
one I get the Black Windows XP Startup Screen (with the
bars on the bottom moving), and then a blue screen
suddenly flickers (probably an error message) that is too
sudden to read. The computer restarts, and the process is
repeated. I don't know what to do. I've tried System
Restore, but when the computer restarts after I select
system restore, the same problem occurs. I would
appreciate your help, since I don't want to lose any of my
files. I would appreciate it if you could help me solve
my problem and tell me how to backup my files now in case
I have to re-install XP. I thank you for your time.
