My Stop Error is of the 0x00000007B variety or better yet, the "inaccessible boot device" error. This makes sense because the ongoing problem with this DELL XPS 420 is that it fails to "detect one or more drives on POST" which I get on start up. If I press F1 with the XP disk in there, it goes through the motions, gets to "starting windows" and then BAM! Stop Error!
Here's the catch-22. A browsing of the internet says that the way to fix this "failure to detect drives on bootup" is to run the recovery console, but the recovery console cannot be accessed because a STOP error prevents it.
HEEEEEEEEELLLLLP!!!
NOTE: If I take out the hard drive and put it in another computer, I can boot it up, but in THIS particular computer, the two issues pop up WITHOUT fail.
