i've just had a network problem with my router (not from a virus, i manually
unplugged the wire to disconnect on purpose). so i decided to restart my
computer.. after clicking on restart, my computer frozed, so i shut the power
down by pulling out the power plug. then after starting the computer. i see
the HP logo and on the bottom it says f1 for set f10 for system recovery,

after that i see the safe mode screen, the options are safe mode, safe mode
with networking, safe mode with command prompt, start windows from the last
known working state, start windows xp normally.

i tried rebooting the comp, pulling out the power again and wait 2 mins
after the power is out.. none of it worked...

no matter which one of those options i choose, the results are the same and
it continues to load windows, shows the windows logo with the blue dots going
by, then it says monitor going to sleep..

when i put in my xp cd and hit repair, it asks me to choose choice 1 for
c:/i386 or c:/miniNT, no matter which one i choosed, the results are the same
and it asks me to type something in next (it says "c:/i385>" or
"c:/miniNT>".. and i dont know what to type...

i called up hp and they told me that i got my windows xp from microsoft and
not from them, because i installed windows xp from a cd i purchased.. tried
contacting microsoft but they only work on business days

nothings wrong with the monitor either..
 
Obviously this issue is too-hot-to-handle (THTH) since no one has bothered to
help you. My suggestion is to remove the hard drive partition, repartition
and reformat your hard drive - then reinstall Windows (clean install).
Reinstall drivers and applications.

This procedure will delete all personal data from your hard drive, but your
system will work again, like new.

Your computer is screwed up, you are never to unplug your system from the
wall while it is running - Windows can't take that abuse.
