My computer crashed. It would go past the Xp home edition screen and then go to a blank screen and stay there. I wiped the hard drive and reinstalled Xp. It worked for a day and now it will not load past the WindowsXp Home Edition screen.

I think it is a virus. See if you can enter in safe mode and run your anti-virus, if not, then you will need to format the hard drive completely (slowly) and reinstall Windows. Do not use the recover option because it does not work with those virus.

upon starting it up hit F10. Restore everything that way. If it crashes, you could have a virus.
