yes it hangs in safe mode or reg mode
sounds like a corrupted Operating system...do you have the XP install disk to attempt a repair of your Windows operating system??? did you recently change your hardware or software after which this started or do an improper shutdown of your PC??
when I hit escape a meeage pops up saying all the files weren't loaded run setup again or something like that .
Put disk in but same problem everytime

check your Bios to verify that the boot order has the CD or DVD drive listed first. that will force the PC to attempt to boot from the CD or DVD drive first once that is set to first in the boot order ,,,if the xp install disk is a bootable disk--you should see a message that says hit any key to boot from CD. if you never see that then this is not a bootable install disk...
all of the above has been tried ,same problem persists
and you get the message to hit any key to boot from CD and then what happens?
Sometimes on my laptop if i have a thumb drive in a usb port I get boot issues as well.
Like "missing operating system".
Or "Failed to load boot device".
Acctually every time I boot with a flash drive in it does that... :tongue:
Are you using the acctual windows disk or is it a back up?

when you boot from the cd, Windows shouldn't ever get a chance to load.
You should see a prompt that says "Press any key to boot from cd..."
Press one.
Then after about 2 minutes of driver and file installing you will recieve 3 options. "Cancel" "Repair" or "Install Windows"
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Put the cd in the tray.
2. Restart Machine.
3. Start Pushing F2
When you see the Bios Screen
1. Select Boot Device Order (or equivalent)
2. Set Boot Device 1 as your cd or dvd drive
3. Save and Exit Bios
4. Watch for prompt to "Press any key to boot from CD..."
5. Press any key before this screen passes.

when I kept pushing F2I did not ever see the bios it went right to press any key to boot from cd
then it went to windows setup and started to install files etc when done it said setup is starting windows
then it comes up with this
