Windows XP Login/Logoff Error, and Win 98

Recommended Posts

Hi, Ok so I got a virus on the computer and since the antivirus tried to clean it up my XP has now started doing this odd thing in both safe and normal mode. It will login and start fine as soon as it gets to the desktop it logs out. This happens in both safe mode and normal, and Ive tried resetting to the last working configuration. I also recently bought the Vista upgrade and want to install that however being away at School I don't have my XP cd, but I do have my Windows 98 Cd.

 

- Is there anyway I can install the windows 98 to overide the corrupt XP?

 

- Is there anyway to Fix the corrupt XP?

1. Delete the NTFS partition and install Windows 98.

 

or

2. Boot from Windows XP CD and do a Repair Install to replace missing/corrupt system files.

I seem to have the same problem, but I'm not sure how to repair the install from the windows CD. Could someone be a little more detailed on how this is to be done. Thanks =)
