    Hi,

    Recently i turned on my father's computer and it came up with the error 'Error loading operation syster'. It was running Windows XP and it only gets as far as the opening 'COMPAQ' screen. I'm really not sure what to do because i've never encountered a problem like this. I'm also not sure if anything was done last time it was on because it's not my PC.

    Also, will it be possible to recover windows without losing any hardrive information or could i even just take the hardrive out and slave it on another PC if needed?

    Might very well be that the hard drive itself is bad. Get/use Compaq's diagnostic software to confirm/exclude.
