oh no! help!
« on: February 05, 2005, 02:07:28 PM »
windows will only launch in safe mode.
it was fine yesterday, and I havent made any changes, but this morning there was a brief power outage that lasted for about 10 seconds before the power came back, so Im guessing something probably got fried.
what do i need to do now?
system restore doesnt do anything, and neither does launching with last known good configuration
running windows xp home sp2 btw

Boot from your xp disk, go into repair mode, type in chkdsk. If that doesn't fix it you'll have to reload windows.
