Hello,
I have an older desktop computer that is running Windows XP. After I turned off the computer (just a normal shutdown), I turned it back on again to do something I forgot to finish and the computer would not move past the blue screen with the XP logo on it. I couldn't get to my user to log in. I then shut it down and tried to start it in safe mode. IT got to the same screen in safe mode and wouldn't move past it.
I pulled the hard drive out and put it in another computer as the slave drive and it worked fine. All the data was there and accessible. I ran check disk just to be sure and it returned that the drive was fine? I am at a lost at what to do from here. If anyone could help me out, that'd be great!
