I'm on a different computer in case you were going to ask. Anyways, I have a WinXP media center edition acer computer, and it was working fine this morning. I went to work, came back, started it up and it said the internet didnt work. Ok this is normal, I shut it off, restart the router, but it won't start back up. It will turn on, go to the loading screens, and right when it's about to go to login screen, theres a split second where a blue screen comes up but then it loops back to restart, over and over. I cannot start in safe mode, and i have no discs. Anything I can do?

Use f8 to get the screen where you can select safe mode. there is an option at the bottom to disable automatic restart on system failure. Highlight it and press enter, then try getting into windows normally. Let us know if that works.

If safe mode doesn't work, then a repair install may be your best option...
