After adding memory, XP (Home edition SP2) started, blue-screened with an
error, and then auto-retarted. This continued for several minutes so I had
to switch off the laptop, and now XP doesn't even boot up - just black screen
with blinking cursor.
I don't have a bootable CD to undertake a repair installation. What are my
best options. The XP installation is an upgrade to Win 98 SE which still
resides on the HDD. Ideally I like to uninstall XP and then re-install, but
I need to keep my data intact.
