Lets work on getting you a copy of the recovery console first.
Is there a computer that you may use to burn a cd?
Do you know any one who has an original copy of XP? (recovery disc will not work)

POST IT AGAIN ON HERE PLEASE!!! SO I CAN BE CORRECT ABOUT THIS [bleep]

You can download the recovery console here and read this to learn how to burn the ISO

Do you have your windows XP CD? If you do, I want you to put it in and turn on your computer. When you are given the message press any key to boot from cd..., press a key and Windows Setup will start. At the first screen where you have to enter input, hit R to enter the Recovery Console. Then you will have to hit 1 to log into your windows installation and then just hit Enter for the Administrator password because it is normally blank unless you changed it. Once you are at the command prompt C:\WINDOWS I want you to type each of the following, hitting enter after each line:

• attrib -s -h -r c:\boot.ini
• del c:\boot.ini
• bootcfg /rebuild
• fixboot

Now type Exit and take your XP CD out. Your computer will reboot itself. Post back how things are going.

do i have to make the files iso.

Using BurnCDCC
This freeware utility is very simple and light.

If you don't have BurnCDCC, you can download it here. [/color]

1) Open BurnCDCC. You do not need to install this program, it runs by itself.

2) Click on the "Browse" button and navigate to the .iso file you wish to burn - in this example, it's called "memtest86+-1.70.iso". Click Open.

3) Insert your blank disc and ensure the correct drive is selected under "Device".

4) Ensure the "Finalize" box is checked.

5) Using the slider bar under "Speed", I recommend you slow it down to around 8x or 10x - too fast can cause errors (as described in step 5 above).

6) BurnCDCC will finish and eject the disc for you. Label it appropriately and there you have it - a disc that was burnt from an image.

[hfcg]

Read post # 22.
This is a good explaination.

[DES315]

[hfcg]

You down loaded the recovery console correct?
Use burncdcc to browse to your desktop and burn the whole download to disc.
Then follow the directions in post # 22. (no I will not re-post the directions.)
