Try to boot off the cd/recovery console, and run chkdisk.exe or maybe
its chkdsk.exe.
 
Also try starting in safemode, and disable automatic boot when system
crashes. (Properties of my computer)

Emne: [windows2000] XP no boot


I installed XP over the top of 2K.  Booted up fine about 5 times, but
now it boots until checking drives, gets half way through checking my
six partitions, then briefly flashes a blue screen, and reboots.
 
I recall reading how to capture the blue screen, but my finger on
pause/break is not fast enough.
 
Is there a way to capture this?
 
Tried over the top reinstall, but when I start setup from the cd, I get
a msg that cmdtool.exe is linked to....advapi32.dll with some sort of
error msg.   Cannot boot from CD either.
 
Anyone able to point me to the first steps to fixing this?
 
BTW, I dual boot 98 and XP
