Ok, I will owe somebody majorly if they can help me! I have Windows XP. This morning I saw something come across before I left about a virus so I click to move it to the vault (Norton). When I got home rebooted machine and get a blue screen when it is trying to load Windows of a "TOP C000021a Fatal System Error" and then it will reboot and try the whole thing over. It won't load even in Safe Mode. I don't have a boot-up disk nor do I have my system backed up. I will try whatever it takes to get to the data on my machine. I do thankfully have another machine I can work off of though. I do have a working knowledge of DOS so I can maneuver some in there if I could get there. PLEASE HELP!

Thanks!
Tamara

Can you boot into Normal or Safe Mode ?

If not, restart your PC, keep pressing F8, select Last Known Good Configuration

Let me know if that works
