So I get home yesterday evening after watching my sister at her swim meet. I move my mouse to get my computer to wake up. It wakes up fine but is a little on the slow side. No biggy. I pop in a CD from work to transfer some file and my comp really slows down, so I figure that the CD is bad. The comp finally locks up so I just restart. So it's restarting and it won't even load the mobo slash screen. So I figure my CPU is overheating or something. So I turn it off and try again a few minutes later. It works fine and I enter the BIOS to fiddle araound so I don't have a overheating problem anymore. So I change some CPU setting, save andexit and then just like before it won't startup. So I reset the CMOS and try again. It starts up just fine but it can't start windows because of a missing kernel. OK fine I'll reinstall, it about time for one of those anyway. So I wait until this morning to try it. I now attempted to reinstall but I get an error when I try to boot from the WinXP CD.
\i386\KDCOM.DLL could not be loaded.
Error code is 4
I've tried to run the setup form both my DVD and CD-RW drives and have tried to install to both my HD's.
I'm at a loss, please help me.
