After I selected the safe mode, it restarted and did the same thing.
I was looking at another problem that you solved titled "can't recover windows ME. (
http://forums.techguy.org/t374247.html)
Do you think this would work in this case?
Here was your solution:
"Boot the computer with a startup for Windows ME. You can download one from
www.bootdisk.com. At the menu select Minimum Boot. At the prompt type the following and press Enter after each line (You must need the Windows ME Product Key for this process as Windows will not install without it):
C:
cd\
Dir Precopy*.* /s
Dir Win_13.cab /s
Note: The above command will give you the location of the installation files. Take note of that.
Copy C:\Windows\Command\Xcopy*.*
Copy C:\Windows\Command\Move*.*
Copy C:\Windows\Command\Deltree*.*
md Install
If the loction of the installation files is C:\Windows\Options\Cabs, type the following and press Enter:
Xcopy C:\Windows\Options\Cabs\*.* /s C:\Install
If the loction of the installation files is C:\Windows\Options\Install, type the following and press Enter:
Xcopy C:\Windows\Options\Install\*.* /s C:\Install
Once the file are copied continue with the following: (IF the files are not copied Stop. Do not Continue and let me know the problem)
Move C:\Progra~1 C:\Previous
Move C:\Windows C:\Win001
cd install
Setup
Follow instructions for installation. Have the ME Product Key Handy for activation.
