blade borge Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 Hi, my windows needed updating so I did. Half way through I accidently clicked x and canceled updating. Tried again, but updater said updates were unsuccessful. Restarted computer. When it came back on there was a low graphic blue screen that said something to the effect of 'we need to reboot restart.' It never did. Only now, the comp starts up, flashes a blue screen for a second, then restarts again, what the heck? Tried getting into safe mode but it was useless. Please help!

-pops- Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 Do you have the Windows disk or recovery disk from the computer supplier? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blade borge Posted October 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 Oh btw, I was able to read the split second blue screen that pops up. Here's what it says, "Unable to locate component. The application has failed to start because winsrv was not found. Re-install the application may fix this problem." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blade borge Posted October 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 okay this link tells my problem perfectlymicrosoftIt says to d/l a critical update. How am I supposed to do that if the pc just keeps repeating start up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 You will need a Windows CD to repair the corrupted files.Do you have a Windows XP CD, or a friend with one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blade borge Posted October 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 I don't think so. You'd think with all the pcs that come installed with XP that they could provide a better alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
