Guest etta Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 Had a problem with a slow computer so erased the drive installed new ram and reinstalled windows xp. have had it running now for about 2 months. Shut it down about 2 days ago and when I tried to turn it back on I am getting a small window with a big RED X and two buttons one yes and one no and no matter which I click it logs me off the computer.

Do this by repeatedly tapping the F8 key as the computer is starting up. This will get you to the right menu. Navigate using your Up arrow key; the mouse will not work here. If you can get into Safe Mode, start by scanning for viruses and malware: http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware If you can't get into Safe Mode, from the same menu try Last Known Good Configuration.
