Make sure all the drivers are UP TO DATE! If you can't acsess the computer with normal mode go into safe mode.. (F8 while booting, select!)

i can acess my normal mode. but how do i update all my drivers. mircosoft update... if that the case.. then it show nothing for my drivers to be updated

[Chadduss]

I would suggest trying to reinstall the drivers in safe mode. Perhaps the install didn't go well. If that doesn't work as long as you're using Windows XP you can roll back the driver. What OS are you using?

window xp home

in windows xp home.. usually blue screen error are causd by the wrong driver or update made in any of the drivers... try to get the error number or code.. if its kernel... or whatever...

try to repair the OS.. (wnXp) just use the cd,,, boot your PC in a cd but before you do that it is better to removed your modem in your PC if its not integrated, and also try to reseaat the video card since you told me that its causing a pale color, once you finish repairing , reboot your PC and see it its able now to open your normal windows..
verify also if there's unnecessary noise coming from the CPU....

do the backup if you are still able to backup some important files in your PC.

have a good day!!

u know that when u used the acitivation key once u cant use it again. so i need to look for another one so my comp wont let me in the comp in 30 days trial......... if u dont understand what im talking about. im very srry. it hard for me to explain it cuz im just 14 years old and know a lot of computer things

[Murray S.]

If the key is legal you can use it again.. You will just have to phone Microsoft to get the activation code!!

Then you will have to do it yourself..

hey for the "key" that you are referring is a serial number of WinXP right???

murray is right you have to call the Microsoft in order to get the Generic Serial Number of WINXP since that is their product.. if your computer is a product of Dell , i believed that they are also giving a Generic Serial Number and its just a phone call away...
