Hello. I am having trouble starting Windows XP. When Windows XP loads up (after like.... 10 minutes of the Windows XP booting screen), I get an error message that says "Application failed to initialize properly (0x0000006)". Also, That message prompts me to terminate Windows XP (Not sure exactly what it said) and all I, other than the messagebox is a blue background with no icons for a desktop. The message that I have previousily told you about pops up twice, and then I am forced to restart. I have tried booting up in safe mode, and I get the screen that asks me to either log in to Windows XP as Administrator or another user. but after that, I get the same two messages, with the same blue background without icons. Booting up at the last known good configuration doesn't work either. Please reply to this as soon as possible. Thanks. -Garrett

http://sft-cyber.com/Re%20Win.htm Sometimes a program, bad driver or conflicts that destroy or corrupt files will necessitate a reinstallation. WinXP will replace damaged or corrupted files without disturbing your data or registry settings so that these will still be available to you. 1. Boot from the WinXP CD 2. Select set up WinXP(ENTER) 3. Windows will find an existing copy of itself and give you the option to repair the highlighted installation 4. WinXP will copy the necessary files to your HD and install --------------------- http://rogier.xszone.nl/windows/wintricks.html http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/proddocs/winnt32.asp http://www.labmice.net/articles/winntcmd.htm • Reinstall XP and keep all your current installed applications and settings .
