i installed sp1 and my computer crapped out, cant even get to login screen before i am told a fatal error has occured adn ihave to restart.

luckily i did a system backup (resotre point thingy) before i upgraded, and i cansee all the files from that directory just sitting there when i installed xp home on my 2nd hard drive to fix the first (pro ed).

so, after i boot from cd, what do i do? i tried going to "repair" but it just brought up a dos console with limited commands..

i tried using all the options from the f8 menu but none work....

how can i fix my xp?
