stop error: registry_error

[colin]

hi. i'm on safe mode(lovely) and i can't get to normal
mode due to a stop error that tells me my registry has an
error. i tried last known working configuration. and no
dice. it does it again. i've reset bios. and nothing. i
guess, how do i repair the registry when i have no
official windows xp disc? all i have is the restore discs.
also note that i hate xp and microsoft needs to burn for
making it >.> i've been getting non-stop stop errors ever
since i restored my pc (never had a problem before, it
just needed a nice reformatting) and i had everything in
the pc that it came with, restored, and then hell broke
loose as it decided to crash over and over and over. and
microsoft would blame it on my modem and video card (which
was later added) and i updated to most recent drivers and
then i got stop errors for other stuff. restored again,
and now i installed all the updates from the website and
still have ONLY what came with the pc, plugged in right
now. nothing else. sooooooooooooo any idea how to repair
the registry without reformatting AGAIN into a majorly
painful(nfts) operating system? i miss dos.... so simple...

first of all, that's not nice. also, i'm not gonna pay
money i don't have for an operating system that i always
hear bad things from. then again, i doubt you're gonna
read this. also, congratulations. you're an asshole. i'd
rather be an idiot than an asshole. *hands you award* go
on now! bitch at people some more!

Colin,

If you were smart enough (doubt it ) to purchase a retail version and not the crappy OEM version you have (recovery disk) then you wouldnt be in this position? YOU chose to purchase OEM so live with it and use your god damned recovery cd to fix your probl
em and stop blaming Microsoft for your own stupidity!!!!!
