Thanks for your posting....have now tried your suggestion and still got this blasted loop...anymore ideas? if theres one thing ive got in my arsenal its determination.

Thanks for you quick and informative response, however when i get to the page after the END-USER AGREEMENT, there is no option to repair, only to SETUP, CREATE or DELETE...am i doing something wrong?

can anyone help....i think my son has pulled the plug on my pc before proper shutdown method. i am now left with a constant loop back to the "WE APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INCONENIENCE..."screen no matter what option i highlight and enter with the up/down keys. ive tried inserting the xp disk...it loads all the files at the windows setup screen...then i press "r" for the recovery console.....after selecting 1: c:\ windows and and entering the admin password im left at c:\windows!!!! What Next? Should i be trying something else? i have unplugged all hardware from the pc such as printers, usb's etc leaving only the monitor and keyboard..(just in case). im confused and frustrated, please help.
