The error is said to be caused by a corrupt boot.ini file and the first thing to try is to run chkdsk /r from the dos prompt. I tried to get to the dos prompt by selecting the appropriate start for windows XP but arrived at the same blue screen error. I found an old windows 98 disc and got to the dos prompt using it, confidently typed the command and pressed enter only to be told 'bad command or file name'. My dos knowledge is very rusty can you please help? Norman -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
