If your XP system is frozen or locks up, wouldn't it be better to figure out why and fix it? Your system should not be locking up. Whatever method you are using now to unfreeze it (pulling the plug, power switch, power button, etc.) could make things really much worse for you if you are not lucky on the day you choose to use that method. XP has a mechanism built in to force a memory dump from the keyboard if your system locks up.

The hook was 'invented' so you have a way to figure out why your system locks up in the first place. Looking at the memory dump file (with some help if you need it), you can usually determine exactly what is causing the lockup and then do something about it. You can read about the feature here: The article looks cumbersome, but it only takes about 2 minutes to put it in, then you just sit back and wait for the next time your system locks up, force a crash dump, figure out exactly what the problem is and fix it (the right way). There are some caveats/limitation at the end of the article, but I have never seen a system so locked up that this procedure fails to generate a crash dump. If you want to troubleshoot and fix a non booting condition (which you will have soon if you are plug pulling), the best way I know of is from the XP Recovery Console and you don't need any XP media to make one. You might want to be getting an XP Recovery Console CD together now.

It is a good thing to have handy for the day when your post topic reads 'My computer will not boot'! This is not the same as any recovery disks that might have come a store bought system. If you are not sure what kind of bootable CD you have, make a bootable XP Recovery Console CD and be sure. You can create a bootable XP Recovery Console CD when no XP media is available by following the directions in this link. Here's how to make a bootable xp recovery console cd Courtesy of A.User Since many folks do not have a genuine bootable XP installation CD - either because they never got one with their store bought system, they lost it, broke it, scratched it, the dog ate it, etc. It usually is a dead end to suggest using the XP installation CD (since most people don't have one).

Suggesting it usually just results in wasted email cycles so it make sense to assume that nobody has one. Nobody has any friends with one either and contacting your hardware vendor to send you one is also going to be a waste of time. Instead of suggesting things that will only work some of the time for some people sometimes maybe, I would rather suggest things that are usually going to work all the time for all folks. This will let you make a bootable XP Recovery Console CD (no XP media required). If you have no bootable XP media (or are not sure what you have) create a bootable XP Recovery Console CD and be sure. This is not the same as any recovery disks that might have come with a store bought system. You can make a bootable XP Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burning it to a CD.

The bootable ISO image file you need to download is called: xp_rec_con.iso Download the ISO file from my OneDrive (everybody has a OneDrive for sharing files): When you see the files available for download, you may not see the file extension (.exe,.dll,.cpl,.sys,.zip, etc.), but when you download them they will have the correct extension. When you download the file (especially if you use Internet Explorer), when you get a chance to save the file, your browser may not save the file with an extension (like.exe,.dll,.cpl,.sys,.zip, etc.) so you will have to manually add the proper extension to the file when you download the file before you save it. You can download the file with no extension and then rename the file to add the proper extension. You don't want to try to use a file called xp _rec_con when the file name really needs to be called xp_rec_con.iso (if the downloaded file has no extension you will have to change the name of the file to add the proper extension to get it to work. Use a new CD and this free and easy program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD: Like many third party programs you might install, the ImgBurn installation defaults to installing things you probably don't want installed on your system in the form of extra Internet browser toolbars or may make other adjustments to your browser. You don't want that so you have to pay attention during the installation.

When clicking through the installation screens be sure to pay attention to the screens and always choose a Custom install and UNcheck the following (or any other things like it): UNcheck: Install the AVG toolbar and set AVG Secure Search as my default search provider Set AVG Secure Search as my homepage and newly opened tabs Choose custom installation again and UNcheck the following: Uncheck: Install QuickShare Here are some instructions for ImgBurn: It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer that is working. You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD ROM drive as the first boot device instead of the hard disk. These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load. If you miss it, you will have to reboot the system again. When you boot on the CD, follow the prompts: Press any key to boot from CD.

The Windows Setup. Will proceed.

Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console. Select the installation you want to access (usually 1: C: WINDOWS) You may be asked to enter the Administrator password (usually empty).

You should be in the C: WINDOWS folder. This is the same as the C: WINDOWS folder you see in explorer.

The Recovery Console allows basic file commands like: copy, rename, replace, delete, cd, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, etc. For a list of Recovery Console commands, enter help at the prompt or read about the XP Recovery Console here: A good idea before starting things is to first verify the integrity of your file system using the chkdsk command. From the command prompt window run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to repair any problems on the afflicted drive. Running chkdsk is fine even if it doesn't find any problems. It will not hurt anything to run it. Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command: chkdsk C: /r Let chkdsk finish and correct any problems it might find.

It may take a long time for chkdsk to complete or it may appear to be 'stuck'. If the HDD light is still flashing, chkdsk is doing something. Keep an eye on the percentage amount to be sure it is still making progress. It may even appear to go backwards sometimes. You should run chkdsk /r again until it finds no errors to correct. Remove the CD and type 'exit' to leave the RC and restart the computer. You do not have to adjust the BIOS again to boot on the HDD since the CD will not be present.
