Should that be AVG?
Install all XP Service packs and updates first and then try again, this will take you some time but let us know how you get on we will still be here should you need us.

most of the advice i get hear if for me to help others too, like my Dad for one.

thanks everyone,,, looks like the op system did not have service pack 2 so when i tried to install avast it would just cause problems. once i installed service pack 2 i was able to go back and install avast.

i really apreciate all your advice and especially your patience. thanks again

You really should be at SP3, not SP2.

[40vern]

Yes I agree. I was just saying that after I downloaded sp2 I was able to start booting normally. I have sp3 now. Thanks again.

Yes indeed, for stability and security purposes
