My Windows XP computer shutdown on its own and now it keeps restarting.
I can start it in safe mode and have run a virus scan using AVG in safe mode
and nothing was found although it was unable to scan some files in the Crypto
subdirectory and other security files as it said they were in use.
I was going to attempt a Windows XP repair. However my original product
disk is SP2 and I have upgraded to SP3. Can I still do a repair from my
product disk or do I need an SP3 disk? If I need an SP3 disk can I use any
SP3 disk? Do I have to uninstall IE7 before I do this? Is there anything
else I can attempt before a repaid
Also if the repair does not work, basically I have the same question for a
re-install. Do I re-install from the original disk and then download the
upgrade to SP3?
