I just upgraded the motherboard/cpu keeping all my previous parts. I was told that I could repair the Windows installation...So I try this and everything goes well (it copies all the files)...but on reboot...after the WindowsXP logo is visible for 5 seconds a blue screen pops up with the error:

STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xF799F750, F7BC6454, 0xF7BC6154)

I tried loging into Safe Mode, but I couldn't because a box came up saying that "Windows XP setup could not be performed in Safe Mode"

I also tried to get into the Windows Recovery Console from CD-boot...but I have no clue what my admin password is...[bleep] I don't think I even set an admin password.

Thanks
