My dad's PC is running xp business pro (I think). The PC overnight went to a blue screen of death and tries to do a chckdsk every single time it boots. Sometimes it works, sometimes it stalls out. Regardless (even if I skip it), when his desktop FINALLY comes up, it will only stay up a minute and then the computer reboots. I have tried booting into safe mode, 95% of the time it gets stuck at the mup.sys and never loads.
Does anyone know what might have happened overnight? I HAD all the windows updates disabled last I checked, but windows is so dirty, so who knows if it tried to sneak one in and corrupted overnight.
Oddly, even when it boots to safe mode, it seems to do the reboot thing if enough time passes???
Update: I also forgot that I tried to run Ubuntu from a thumbdrive. It failed to load b/c of a "Kernel Panic".
Thank you so much for any help!
