this has been driving me nuts

windows xp system embedded

is there any program out there that can repair the bootup and startup of this system


cheers guys

oh boy this is driving me nuts

surely someone knows how you can repair a windows embedded system

How about some details?

Are you having trouble with a particular system?

If so, what I/O devices do you have? Which CPU? Does it have a debug port? RS232? USB?

ok the details are that its my arcade machine which has windows xp embedded on it

windows should load up first and does nothing.

was working fine

machine does not boot at all
starts up and remains blank screen

its corrupt start up or boot

ram is working 100%
motherboard 100%


its got a rs232 power and usb

Can we see a photo of the setup?

BTW, what makes you think that software will repair your hardware? Have you done some basic tests, like checking the power supply voltages? How do you know that your display is OK? How did you test your motherboard?

For component level technical advice, you may like to visit the sci.electronics.repair newsgroup. I believe there are also specialist arcade forums and newsgroups that are better suited to your question.

Black screen how fun. Normally is virus have yiou tried to pull this drive and do a virus scan on it? All the ones that come to me are virus that cause this problems. Normally after virus scan you can start it up again or at least I can. But pull and scan on another sytem

was working but we had a power cut and the machine was on and now it loads up blank screen nothing else.
so the bootup is corrupt or start up
