XP Boot problem
LockedI have a clients system in for repair with the following problem. System was not shut down correctly as it starts with “windows did not start correctly screen” and I have a choice between, Safe modes, last known good config, or start windows normally.
Under normal start up the progress bar starts up and completes to the end, then system just freezes.
If I try in safe mode, I see the drivers loading, and during the process, system also freezes, last line on screen is //drivers/mup.sys although I am not sure if this is the last driver loaded ok, or the the driver where I am freezing.
Also, I have no XP repair or boot disks, as I have no other XP systems on my test bench, ( all I have is windows 2000)
I also suspect this system was infected with the blaster worm, which I know how to remove, just mentioning, in case this provides any clues.
So how can I go about getting into XP, so I can fix this problem?
HELP!!!!
