    Hi guys

    need a bit of help
    really skint so i had to learn how to do a few things and here i am w bsod and cannot do anything. I have original cd but it has only original os and i believe recovery console will not work because the laptop had sp3. I cannot absolutely afford any kind of pro help so pls help me here. Need it desperately as i do some voluntary work on it. Also reinstall s not an option as i need to recover my files.
    full error code is 0x000000ed ( 0x865a1900, 0xc000009c, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

    Thank you so much for everything

    PS if this isnt correct place to post can you pls not delete post and tell me where to post? Thanks PPS I have another post, same content... is that ok? desperate for help here...

    First thing I would do is to run a linux distro off a cd or usb key and recover your files. Then search for something called 'bartpe' and run that from a cd. When running open a command prompt and run 'chkdsk /r' on your xp drive.

    Hopefully its only a bad sector on the HDD causing this BSOD
    As above, get either BartPE or Hirens Boot CD or MiniXP and run chkdsk
