WXP SP1 won't boot into normal mode. It will boot into Safe Mode. It
just sits at the splash screen and the progress indicator goes by.
This occured after a reboot by Drive Image 2002 which was backing up
the hard drive ironically.
I have gone in through Safe Mode and done a Scandisk and disabled
nearly everything via MSCONFIG. I suspect registry corruption, but is
it possible the boot sector is messed up if it can boot into Safe Mode?
How can I recover from this quickly? My wife needs to use the computer
to do online classes and tests. Will the XP installation disk help in
any way? I am reasonably capable of fixing the Windows OS so I am
willing to get down and dirty if needed. Thank you for your help.
