Don't even bother calling HP for tech support. I tried... got hung up on twice today
and then after trying online chat I was told to format and start over. I don't know
about everyone else, but I'm suspicious that this problem is an XP and an processor
problem. I have an HP laptop w AMD processor... work pc, not my choice. I got the
same blue screen page-invalid error messages, downloaded Microsoft updates, today
a lock up and CRASH. I can't boot at all. Error says unmoutable_boot_device. I
doubt it. I'm trying the BIOS update tomorrow. As far as a reload of XP, yes you
can repair.
