it sounds like a faulty driver or something that is loading up with windows is causing a serious error. To make the process easy i would reinstall windows but you can do this and keep all of your programs and files etc.. http://www.windowsreinstall.com/winxppro/installxpcdparallell/indexfullpage.htm There is a perfect guide the only thing you will loose is updates and hotfixes and wallpaper it overwrites the windows files and doesnt loose you your programs, drivers will also need to reinstalled but this will be the quickest solution to this problem i would say. I would still reccomend making a backup of critical data just incase. If you could give me the error code of the blue screen it would help it may for example be IRQ_LESS_OR_NOT_EQUAL thats one i remember.
oh..ok... thanks alot... hmm.. somehow it seems that my comp 'repaired' itself.. hahaz... ya... yest i was able to turn on the comp again... bt i tink i'll juz backup info.. just in case it decides to die by itself again... thanks for the help aniwae...
