on my windows XP desktop, i cannot log in
it keeps saying
"remove new hardware"
"press f8 to"
"restart"
and what is really worrying me
"deleting physical memory"
what does this mean, do i have to turn it in to fix it??
Did you install a new device such as a cd drive or a new system card like a graphics card? If so remove it then try a reboot. If you are not sure, check to make sure all cables and cards are seated firmly in place. If still wont boot, when it loads past the bios screen press F8 repeatedly until you see the boot XP options screen. Check the "last known good configuration" and if it doesn't boot then, next load up check the "safe mode with networking" option. Once in Windows open the system properties dialog box by pressing and holding the Windows logo key and the pause/break key. Once there click the hardware tab and then click the "device manager" tab. Look for any conflicts, try and update the drivers, uninstall or just remove the device if a problem is found.

Oh by the way, does your hard drive make a clicking or odd noise? Maybe the hard drive is going out. Don't fret just get a new one, install XP on the new one, set the old one to slave and try to backup all you can, text files, pictures, mp3s etc...
