XP not starting!!!

Did u disable ne service?
U can try to repair ur XP, it'll surely solve ur problem!

tell me wats wrong i cant figure out.I even restored my pc to a previous date still not working .The problem is that its stopping on the screen bfore login screen the one which has windows XP professional written on it.

u disabled the boot skin ????

seems to be some sortofa bootskin problem posibly.
try to boot in 'last known good configuration'.
try to do a system restore.

if they dont help, go to safe mode.
did u install any new applications/ programs recently ? if yes uninstall them.

then check up ur start-up entries. if u can, disable the non-microsoft ones' for the moment. u can use the xp tool, or else install winpatrol (in safe mode itself) and use it.

in safe mode also use 'ccleaner' or other such cleaner to clear ur pc junk.

hopefully it shud help. if it doznt, do revert pls.

disable start up in safe mode and try booting

ppl i tried booting again in normal mode but it got stuck again i waitred for 20 minutes and it opened.Can anyone tell why has my system became deadslow and why it takes time to load to the login screen.

Have You installed a Service Pack?

no it makes the system run at snails pace and everything gets stuck so never installed a service pack

what did u do different that ur xp stopped booting ?
what was the last thing u worked on ?

also boot into safe mode and run system restore and restore to a point ur system was working fine

raven bhaiya read my earlier posts too i had done system restore and all those things but now the problem is it boots only after nearly 20 mins or sumthing after showing the windows XP professional loading screen.

Did u install softies like style xp or any softie like that?Try removing that. It also happened with me. I installed style xp and afterwards my pc was taking time to load all the servies.

ok i had to skip a few posts dude !
but temme what was it u last worked on before the problem popped up ?

try repairing ur installation using ur install disk or boot nto safemode and reset all the theme files

i uninstalled the windowsblinds some days ago and even removed many things and the last thing i was working on was katana mod.I was trying to unzip the files but it always kept getting stuck so i killed the processes and shutdown my pc as i had to go out.

hmm one of those moves screwed something up
but a system restore SHOULDVE worked in that case

so heres what ya do ,..
run sfc /scannow from start => run
it'll ask for xp cd .. pop it in

tried it still no hope can u tell me something there was a registry file in the katana mods zip file thuogh i never unzipped that file could it have done the damage.
As there is no need for registry file in max payne mods

Ur problem has no solution.Backup ur data and reinstall xp.If u have disabled any services enable them and try tweaking ur registry.

XP now starting with very less problems though some of theof the programs are taking a lot of time. As raven had said i took time restored the system again and repaired it again it did the work but still computers a bit slow. Thanks everyone for the help as i can now boot without any problem. Thanks everyone again.

CONGRATULATIONS! Hop u'll reach the next title soon.

less problems mean that it takes sometime to load login screen(negligeable) and that programs running a bit slow.


And i have this problem though old i installed flash player many times but i cant see it in the add and remove programs list.

back up and reinstall.works every time !
