I have read this forum and understand why this is acting this weird. I am guessing i tried to install the SP2 UPDATE and it caused this to start happening. Actually it keeps on restarting after the windows xp screen with the blue bars going across the screen. After pressing f8 continously and disabling the automatic restart, i saw the error message. I had no idea what it was so i looked it up.

Now the question is, i do not have any os cd with me. Is there any other solution for me?? If i am able to get a cd, what steps do i follow to repair this problem. I also cannot get into safe mode
I tried safe mode with command prompt and it still restarts. Is there anyway possible to resolve this problem without having the xp cd or boot up cd. Thank you

If it matters, it is a emachines T1116

I would recommend Contacting your computer manufacture and getting the necessary CD's.

If you do not have the operating system CD. You can try to download rc.iso and burn it to a cd as an ISO image. You may need a burning toy like ISO Recorder to do this...be sure to get the version for your operating system.
