I have did try; Load windows normaly and Last Known good conf and Safe mood, but i still can't get in to windows (Or to the screen with a blue background which says Windows is strating up)

When you get to the choice of boot up options, that has "safe mode" etc listed, see if there is an option that says "disable auto restart" there isn't always, it depends on your XP installation, but if there is, choose that and reboot. Then write down everything written on the blue screen and post back.

Try repairing your windows installation. Boot from XP cd. On the first option press "R" (not enter). It might as for keyboard layout & language just select the correct ones. Now you will see that you have a somewhat command prompt window. At "which windows installation ..." type in the number 1, then press enter @ administrator password just press enter (if you do have an administrator password enter it). At the next option C:\ ... enter chkdsk /rsxp & press enter. This process may take a while. When done type exit.


NOTE: AT "which windows installation ..." if you do not see (just above that 1 C:\Windows or 2 C:\Windows then your windows installation is severly damaged. In that case i would suggest a reload.

Hello, again
There is no option of Disable autoreboot.
When i use my Windows XP CD, as D-Vilenski said, and the first option it just gives me a choice of 'Repair Windows', Install windows and move all my hard drive files to My OlD Disk Structer and the last option 'Quick format and and reinstall windows'
any More Help,
Thanks
