I have a Dell Computer (about 2 yrs old) Pentium 4 with
Windows XP Operating System. The tech guy here at work
downloaded the Microsoft spy ware program onto my work
computer and suggested that I do this at home also. I
have had no problems with this program at work. So last
night I downloaded and installed the Microsoft Anti Spy
Ware program on my home computer and then ran it. In the
meantime I downloaded a couple of windows security
updates (as I have been very lax in doing this), during
this time the spy ware program finished and it found six
files (I think) and several registry whatever. I told it
to clean-up, meanwhile the install had started on the
updates. A window popped up asking for my Service Pac 1
Disk (I downloaded this file never had a disk) I thought
this was for the windows update install so I cancelled
out. Anyways, I did not get an error message on the spy
ware clean-up thingy and since I was done with
everything I was doing, I shut down my computer (big
mistake). Went back on later last night to check e-mail
and I cannot boot my system. The Dell screen flashes
then the Windows XP screen comes up for about a minute or
so. My computer clicks then the Dell screen flashes the
Windows XP screen comes up again, computer clicks and
then the whole process starts again. I tried starting in
safe mode and I tried starting with the last know good
configuration, basically the machine started loading
windows and then a blue screen with some white writing
flashes very quickly (so quickly you cannot even read it)
then the whole cycle (Dell screen flashes/Windows XP
screen comes up/machine clicks/Dell screen flashes,
etc..).
I am in school on-line and in the middle of a class cycle
so I need my computer.Help.
