Computer Problem -
09-05-2004, 10:03 PM
Ok my dad has a big problem. He had Microsoft money on his computer, it wasnt working so he uninstalled it. He reboted and now alls it does is a scan disk check, ya know the XP check when you dont boot your comp properly, after the scan disk the comp reboots. So now he cant even get to windows to fix the problem. I think when he deleted Money it might of deleted an important registry? Any idea guys, i need your help on this one.

hold down the shift key when booting up. it will keep it from going into that loop. then go into your system startup and se if restart is in there. if it is take it out. hope this helps.
