Have a 2 yr old system w/XP Home SP2. Today it refused to load. Upon a
cold boot you get to the black screen w/ the progress bar making 3 runs then
back into a automatic reboot. This will continue as long as you want. Able
to get into
Safe Mode. Ran MSConfig, unchecked all startups, then rebooted. Same
thing. Back into Safe Mode, MSConfig and unchecked everything in Services
that was not essential. Same results. In Safe Mode checked to see about
defrag, it said it didn't need it. In Safe Mode w/Networking, ran a scan
online, nothing showed. Did a system rollback, no help. Used the OS CD for
a repair, no help. Did a fixboot and a fixMBR, no help. No new programs
added.
Besides doing a OS reload, any ideas ?
Thanks for your help,
Sam
