I was on the internet with my HP notebook and it froze, then I got the blue screen of death. It said "beginning dump of physical memory". After that it wouldnt load bast the Windows XP logo screen with blue loading bar. My virus program expired so it could be a virus?
So I put in my OS cd that came with the computer and tried to repair XP. After I did that the computer starts its boot with the gray loading bar (like it wasnt shut down properly) and takes forever to get past it. Then it starts to boot like normal but after the Windows XP logo screen with blue loading bar, it goes to a black screen and thats it. I have a cursor that I can move around, but nothing else.
Please help, I have many important files and pictures I would like to save.
PS. After the repair didnt work, I re-booted with the CD and the other option was to install a new copy of XP, but it warned not to install two OS's on one partition and the other partition is too small...Is there anything I can do here or is there a completely different way to fix this problem?
Thanks!!!
