My PC, Intel Core 2 Duo 2.93, 2GB RAM, GeForce 8400GS 512MB, keeps restarting. It says that it did not start successfully. In there it shows these options:

Safe Mode
Safe Mode with networking
Safe Mode with Command Prompt

Last Known Configuration

Start Windows Normally

When i choose "Safe Mode" it loads file like

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\windows.......etc. All files are .sys like ftdisk.sys or pci.sys.
Then asks me to "Press Esc to cancel loading SPTD.sys" When i don't press it shows another:
"Press Esc to cancel loading vax347b.sys" and when i don't press anything. Restarts.
Same goes for Safe Mode with Networking and Safe Mode with Command Prompt.
When i try Last Known Configuration it goes to the Windows Logo and loads with the blue bars running then suddenly it goes to Blue screen the restarts. I disabled automatic restart when failure occurs. Then tried using Last Known Configuration, goes to windows logo, then It says on the Blue Screen:

A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME

If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:

Check to make sure any new hardware....................

Technical Information:

*** STOP: 0x000000ED (0x89DB6900, 0xC0000006, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

Same goes for start windows normally.

This type of error occurred only w/out the Blue Screen of Death and i can use Safe mode on my old desktop. I bought a new one after two months buying a new one this is the problem.

I know your system running slow due to windows registry files and invalid entries. If your PC is slow moving and crashed by the invalid entries then you have to download registry easy because these bad entries are most likely caused by new fixings of new hardware – such as printers, scanners, webcams etc. Install or uninstall programs can make your windows registry confusion. Even if the registry appears to be fine, you can spontaneous 0x00000000 errors just by having diverse strategy interfering through each other. Pretentious you’ve installed a new hardware device before error, go back and uninstall it totally. Now run a system scan corrupt registry entries. You can download registry cleaner from http://ccleaner.com

Well you seem to have been a victim of online threats a.k.a. viruses. But that doesn't always proof to be the problem. Try unplugging your computer, and if you don't disagree about your warranty void, open the computer case and unplug the hard drive. Replug it on another hard drive slot. Leave the computer unplugged for another half an hour. After 30 mins, plug it in and turn it on. The boot disk memory on your hard drive will be reseted and any virus tampering will be deleted. So, the way I see it, when you boot up, go for start windows normally. when it shows your desktop it will probably say that you have pluged in a new hard drive. Restart. After that you shouldn't have any similar problems, but if you get to the desktop screen, do scan for viruses and check your graphics card driver, who can also cause this. If this doesn't repair the problem, you should install a fresh copy of windows (try 7), but only do so like a last resort.

seems your problem is incompatibility of drivers you've installed,

try to remove the video card or any device youve installed before the problem appears, then try to reboot your pc, if the problem is still, then you can follows this directions,







1. Boot your system with the Windows XP installation disk.

2. on the Welcome to Setup screen, press R.

3. Select the operating system installation you want to repair and then provide the administrator username and password.

4. At command prompt type the chkdsk /r command and then press Enter. If this command fails to fix the file system, run the fixboot command.

5. Type exit and press Enter to restart your PC.

6. Your system should startup normally now.



Method 2: Fix the UDMA Controller Error



If your hard disk controller is UDMA, perform the following tasks to fix the error messages:



* Start your computer and press Del or F10 to enter system setup-the key you press may differ depending on the BIOS installed on your system. When the BIOS settings are displayed, press the appropriate key to load the Fail-Safe default settings. Next, activate the frequently used options, such as the USB support.

* If you have standard 40-wire cable installed on the system, replace it with 80-wire UDMA cable.



IF THIS DIRECTIONS DID NOT FIX YOUR PC, THEN YOU MUST REFORMAT YOUR COMPUTER! GUD LUCK DUDE!!

Your hard drive start to fail now... the clicking noise or scratching noise comes from it probably so try opening up your CPU tower and check the hard drive. My suggestion is to backup important files that you have on that drive ASAP and replace a new one.
