Ok, started off by trying to clean my registry. During its scanning,my PC froze.. Therefore I tried to reboot my PC,hoping that it would be ok. During the start up,it told me that I didnt shut off my PC properly,and gave me options to start normally,in safe mode n etc.. I tried 1 by 1 of the options but it just stops at the options screen again.. I gave up to try it another day,now it just stucks after reading my ram.. What's wrong? =[

unfortunately this happens when a hard shutdown is performed on a computer. If it doesn't boot back properly then a system repair is about the only option that you have to fix it. This is caused by the loss of data due to the shutdown and not from the scanning of your registry! In reference to 11/05/2008 "So this is how liberty dies. With thunderous applause." - George Lucas

You could try booting to your XP CD and run chkdsk /r after entering the Recovery Console. "So won’t you give this man his wings What a shame To have to beg you to see We’re not all the same What a shame" - Shinedown

Out of curiousity, which program were you using to clean the registry? and why?

Ouh,thx guys.. gonna try dat out soon.. Hmm,I forgot what's the name of the software as it was just an "I'll-Try-This-Out" moment for me.. If I ever get to get my PC running agn I'll tell ya.. =]

Before you ever do anything to the registry, you should always save a copy of it. A program I use to check for Registry issues is CCleaner (www.ccleaner.com) and also cleans up temp files and everything other kind of file that could be taking up mucho space on your computer
