- Won't Boot
- Posted by kirb on March 24th, 2006
After changing drive names using the registry in XP Pro, Windows won't boot.
It loads to the screen right before the user list shows up, but the "Loading
Windows..." text doesn't show and it hangs there. How can I get it to go past
this screen?

On next Startup tap F8 until you get a Menu. Select Last Known good
Configuration and see if that helps. If not try Safe Mode and if XP loads
then try a System Restore. Go to Start>All Programs>Accessories>System
Tools>System
Restore.
