Jim

When I start all I get is the black screen with all the stuff on about checking NVRAM then onto a screen with all the flooply info then it goes and just keeps repeting these 2 screens.
I do not see any windows screen at all.

Hi em05

Its just possible that your Kernel32.dll file is missing or damaged."

To repair your Kernel32.dll file will need your Windows XP install disc for this.

Instructions on how to repair Kernel32.dll file can be found here.

Windows XP logon screen does not appear and the computer continuously restarts

The only other option is to consider a repair install.

Again you will need your XP install disc. Instructions on how to do this can be found here.
