ok so i turned my computer on yesterday and right after
running scandisk it went into a memory dump... i was able
to see that it was a corrupted registry problem since it
was a short message. so i went to Microsoft Knowledge
Base Article 307545 and followed all the steps... well,
almost all. after i finish step 3 (type exit) and take
out the cd, it runs scandisk again and altho this time it
doesn't crash right after that, it crashes when i get to
the windows startup screen where you type in your login
password... i can't read the error fast enough tho (for
some reason my auto-restart on system failure is not
disabled)... might anyone know why it's crashing at this
point or how to fix it??
