don't panic windows xp does and says a lot of things. read
the whole screen, it mentions you may be seeing the boot
options because of power outage and just say start
normally. oh you wanted to use your computer. oh wow ...
sorry XP is using your computer to sell you more crap from
microsoft ... if you truly can't boot it most likely isn't
xp it may be hardware related, check all connections. i
know xp seems like the culprit but the darn thing will
boot its tired sorry ass even when pushed to incredible
limits by angry users like me who enjoy watching it
writhe, barely able to produce a bleeeeeep as it's lame
cartoonish graphics melt away. if all else fails just
reinstall ... steer clear of systemworks, symantec, if you
value all that is decent and pure in this world ...
