Window XP hangs on logo...then Blue Screen
Here is what I think happened. First of all I have a gateway M285 (tablet pc). Anyway I left the room with my laptop on battery power. After I came back I pluged it in and turned it on and noticed it was taking forever to load windows (just hung on splash screen). After awhile it just gives me a blue screen that said something about 0x0000003 STOP error I believe. I have a hunch that the computer was installing Windows Updates when it died. Could have that corrupted some system32 files? Since my pc is a tablet and belongs to my college I have no windows xp cd except my addition from my desktop....however I tried to run recovery mode but it does't recognize my sata drive. Right now I'm running ubuntu (linux) on it from a cd. I did end up mounting my drive (with windows on it). However I'm not sure where the problem lies. Is there anything I can do in Linux to fix the problem? Is there a recovery option that works for sata drives? Anything...would be helpful.
