My computer is fixed… It was just file corruption in a very bad place. The steps that were required to fix it are as follows.

1) Find a real XP CD, not one of those system restore disks Big Computer companies give you.

2) Boot from CD.

3) Wait 5 minutes whilst the CD loads all the drivers you don’t need. Then enter the recovery console.

4) Type CHKDSK

5) Type EXIT

6) Reboot.

7) All fixed.
