Before reinstalling XP, run Dell diagnostic's extended test on the hard drive.
The guide for this should be in the owner's manual.

Thanks for the Information, but I been there, restarted windows clicking F12, and with cd in the drive chose, IDE CD-ROM and it still went in the Blue screen Titled as it states on the Subject line.I do appreciate all the info you gave me and hope they'll be more to come, this pc has become a challenge for me,Now. hahahahaSummer project you might say,hahahahThanksI cant figure out how to post a new msg, but my issue is sort of the same
I am getting the UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME
following technical info.
can you tell me what is wrong? I cant get the rescue disk to do anything, get msg that primary drive1 not found &secondary drive 1 cant be found
when I hit F1 I get page black and white choices SAFE MODE, etc then before I even click I get the blue screen again
get the following TECHNICAL INFORMATION
xxxSTOP: OXOOOOOOED(OX8234BCO8, OXCOOOOOO6,OXOOOOOOOO,OXOOOOOOO)
Can you tell me if this means my hardrive is cooked? I have a Dell desktop 3000, very old, actually just bought new Dell laptop (using) and new Dell 530 pc, but I would like the 3000 to work if possible.
thanks in advance
Nancy
