I turned my computer on this morning and got the following message:
We apologize for the inconvenience, but windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.
Blah blah blah, I'm sure you've seen this message before.
Then it gave me the 5 startup options: Safe Mode, SM with networking, SM with command prompt, last known good configuration, start normally. All 5 options result in the machine restarting and coming up with the same error message.
I haven't added any new hardware and the only software I added recently was Noteworthy Composer. I took the case apart and reseated the drives, but it did not fix it. I tried booting from 3 different copies of windows xp, but it still took me to the same error message.
Ok you geniuses out there... go
