    My dad was trying to repair his installation of XP Pro... it would get to a certain point, and display the error code 0xDEADBEEF... Never seen that one before... what should he do?

    It sounds like his computer has Mad Cow disease.

    Have him re-install without a format, instead of the repair. It will preserve most of his programs and settings.
