well, my monitor broke a few days ago, i got a replacement CRT now, but my PC won't start up, I get a blue screen after the XP loading bar comes on, it loads for a bit, then bluescreen for like half a second, can't read anything from it. Anyone ever had this before and has an idea? I'm writing this from an ubuntu livecd I had laying around.
Help please ;(

I bet you had too big resolution for CRT with that flatscreen or whatever monitor you had before and you switched straightly to current one = pc doesnt like

rly ? yes
my guess: resolution fail
you cant disable reboot after bluescreen without going into windows though?
i think you can disable it thru the bios
or get chuck norris to capture the BSOD image in his mind
2. What is the BSOD code?
2. the bsod flashes for half a second, i cant even manage to read 1 word from it. too fast to take a pic, but i will try recording a movie of it and taking a still from it there.

Or do this :P. I made a confusion with windows vista.
LLE: Enter safe mode first using F8 if you can't boot normally sao you can disable the automatic reboot in control panel.
imo f8 only brings up the bootoptions (safemode / normal)
1. Check if Ubuntu has an app (install it with synaptics) that can edit Windows registry. If yes... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314466/en-us @method 2 go to the registry file in the system and edit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\CrashControl\AutoReboot and put it 0.
else
2. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314466/en-us do this
LE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Registry if seems that Windows Recovery Console comes with a registry editor. You can use it to modify that AutoReboot value to 0.
