I loaded RegCleaner and got the following error message and had to use control-Alt-Delete to close it. The instructions at "Ox77f58e20" referenced memory at "Ox31333937". The memory could not be "written". Click on ok to terminate the program.

Before I try a system recovery CD .. I just want to confirm that I have in fact killed my PC <sniff> .. When I try to 'boot-up' I get a registry/configuration error message and 4-boot options .. normal/safe mode/ bootlog/and step by step .. I've tried them all and no go .. I end up with a black/white wallpaper background with 'safe mode' printed in the corners 'ctrl-alt-del' just recycles me thru the process again "Use SCANREG to correct this error" good advice but if I can't figure out how to boot in MS-DOS .. then that's not possible either .. I'm about to try a system recovery CD and start from scratch again .. but wanted to check here first .. FYI .. It's a HP-Pavillion 5390-n notebook PC running Windows ME OS .. TIA Triffin
