Can Someone Walk Me Through Reinstalling Or Repairing Windows Xp Pro?

Monday, February 15th, 2010

OK! I have a video driver corruption on agpCPQ.sys and am not able to load Windows in any way. I’ve tried just about everything (BIOS, Data Recovery, CMOS settings, CHKDSK etc) and nothing seems to work. My EMACHINE W3118 gets through the Windows load screen and then goes dark. I would prefer to repair Windows XP through the recovery console. I ran chkdsk with /f and even though the found error seems to have been fixed my computer is still not loading or displaying. I have also reinstalled Windows XP on my partition 1 (FAT32) because I was nervous about deleting all of my files on NTFS if this would not fix my problem. I am at the end of my rope and could use a step by step walk through on how to delete and reinstall Windows on NTFS partition (assuming thats what I should do) Can anyone help?
For a bit of background this all started when I tried to install a new VIdeo Card. I disabled and deleted the previous drivers and stopped the VGA Controller process only to discover that my new video card was not in all the way. It turns out that either this or all of the restarting corrupted the system driver file agpCPQ.sys

It depends on what option you choose. In the Windows XP setup disk it will ask you if you want to repair or load it to a new installation (deleting your existing data).
If you see something else when you put your recovery disk in, such as a manufacturer logo, then you are probably in their recovery mode and most of them will completely restore the hard drive to the factory settings.
I would contact the manufacturer of your computer by going on the website and search for “reinstall windows” or “reinstall operating system” to read about the specific options that are available to your computer as most of the manufacturers do it differently. Good luck and be careful – read all of the information on the screens carefully so you know what is going to happen!
