Dimension 8100 - On booting up get a blue screen with Windows Protection error, when initialising CONFIGMG, System halted you need to restart yor machine
Yesterday, I switched on my Dimension 8100 and went to play a DVD, the playing software crashed Windows Me, so I rebooted the PC.
When it was rebooting, it came up with a blue screen saying -
Windows Protection Error while initialising CONFIGMG.
System Halted. You need to restart your machine.
I restarted the PC and went into Safe Mode. Once in Safe Mode, Scandisk began scanning my two hard drives, because of 'Improper Shutdown'. This crashed Safe Mode, and I had to reboot the PC again.
Tried Safe Mode again, but the same thing happened.
How can I fix this, i really need my PC as I do a lot of graphic and video work on it?
Thanks
