I'm having problems with my existing xp home edition
(keeps restarting upon bootup and never makes it to
Windows). I need to retrieve my data in the user account
before restoring the system using my recovery disk
(provided by manufacturer, which will restore the system
to the very initial stage with all the documents deleted),
so I installed another version of windows xp professional
on a different partition (D drive), trying to get those
files out, but in vain. The folders and files are
protected. Help, please!!!
 
I believe that I am having the same problem as Gregg with
the W32/Blaster and I need assistance. I downloaded the
patch and everything worked fine for the evening, but the
next morning I could not access any file nor could locate
the START button. In fact, every approximate 20 seconds or
so the screen on the monitor turns dark and then the DELL
initiating screen appears sometimes with and sometimes
without a narrow, horizontal white vibrating line. The
computer turns itself on and off repeatedly in this
fashion. I have a 4 Pentium model. Any suggestions you can
offer would be appreciated.
 
Nicholas, you are awesome! I'm glad Gregg had the EXACT same problem I
had! Now I can try to rebuild my old profile.
