Im running windows xp home edition and i recently, for the first time in a while, actually turned my computer off rather then putting it on standby. The next time i go to turn it on it gets stuck on startup and says preparing network connections... and doesnt go further(i left it overnight and no change). It wont start in safemode, nor boot from the xp install disk.
I have ErdCommander and pretty familiar with regestry editting but im basically out of ideas. Also i changed my sysid a while back but it restarted fine with that before so i dont see that as a problem. If you need an additional information just ask. One last thing i'd rather not do a system restore or reformat because i have to so many things that i havent managed to back up or salvage, and its a lot since i have over 4000 songs , if i have to thats a last resort.
