Ever turn your windows XP machine on and the thing refuses to boot or you see all kinds of errors when you boot up and your machine just hangs and won't load? If your shaking your head yes to this then this is the program for you. Before i get into this a disclaimer don't even attempt to use this software if you don't know how to use it. It can make things worse for you if you hop into it and don't have a clue what your doing.
