About Linux

The first thing you need to do is to check if the problem is due to hardware failures.

If you are experiencing BSODs, Arithmetically BSOD list will tell you which ones are due to hardware problems. They suggest what to do to repair the particular hardware problem.

If a hard disk problem seems likely, you can use the UBCD (ultimate boot CD) available at UltimateBootCD to diagnose your hard drive and possibly fix it.

You can try to do a repair install which will use your XP installation CD to repair your problem. If successful, it will leave your programs and data intact.

This method is somewhat complicated and techy and not for the faint of heart. The best write up on this is provided by Michael Stevens Tech You might also try an 8 step repair from a Geek squad veteran found at the Icrontic site.

AN AUTOMATIC METHOD Reimage software will automatically repair your computer and can do this even if you can’t boot. It will cost you a small amount of money but it is much less than what a repair shop would charge and it will save you hours of time. This approach makes the most sense for the majority of computer users.

USAGE SCENARIOS

1. Home User
2. Repair Technician
3. Company PC Support Department

The home user benefits from using Reimage when they need to call in a technician or bring their PC in for repair. A single Reimage repair costs little, completes quickly, is reversible and guaranteed. This method is faster, cheaper and more convenient than having a computer expert do the repair. If the repair doesn’t work out, you can always go to a repair professional with nothing lost other than a little time.
