Hey guys,
Well my computer wont boot into xp, it gets passed the bios goes to load windows but nothing a blank screen.
I did safe mode and it comes up file is missing or corrupt /windows/system32/config/system insert cd and press r to repair, so i put the cd in it goes to load it (yes i have set it to boot from cd first) but nothing a blank screen again, i even go to do the gigabyte xpress recovery but again nothing a blank screen..
If anyone can help me that would be great

I just checked there is a switch at the back of the power supply to turn the fan on but it was switched off.. its still a bit hot ive switched the fan on but its still not booting.. if i give it a while do you think it should boot into windows or could it be something else?

Hello m0nk,

So, turn on your PC, put in Windows CD and turn the pc off . Then turn it on, it asks you to press any key to boot from the cd disk, right.

Hello m0nk,

At some point it should ask you to boot from CD. At this point you HAVE to press a key in order to boot from CD.
I suggest you get your windows CD and follow the steps to repair an Operating System from our admin.
