Guest Unknown Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Re: windows did not start successfully I just had the same problem. (No idea why). The only method that fixed my computer was a restore to a previous date.

Guest emilyrocks Posted September 13, 2008 Posted September 13, 2008 RE: windows did not start successfully Andrew, maybe you or someone can help me take this a step further. I've got the same problem. It won't open up in safe mode. I'm now attempting to boot to the xp cd. After the C:, the prompt asks me for the administrator password, and I'm not sure what to put there. I put in the password I know, but it doesn't accept. I'm not sure if this is what you said below, but I tried pressing enter and I also put in Fixboot and Fixboot Agree. It says that's invalid and makes me restart after three tries. Any more advice?
