My windows xp can't start, how can I get my files in C:\

[Terry]

Hello John,

Please try to use Windows XP CD to boot your computer. And
then enter the repair console to check the computer issue
again.

Please refer to this Knowledge Base article listed below:

us;307654&Product=winxp

If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

Regards.

Terry
