LT20HVK says "out of range" when PC boots up. Windows XP SP2. works fine in safe mode.

go into safe mode and just uninstall your graphic drivers and start again normaly

have you tried to boot into safe mode by tapping f8 @ start up? if you can boot into safe mode, i recommend going here: https://www-secure.symantec.com/norton-support/jsp/help-solutions.jsp?lg=english&ct=united+states&docid=20080710133834EN&product=home&version=1&pvid=f-home and downloading the norton uninstaller and running it in safe mode with networking. that should clear up any drivers or files that were not removed when the uninstaller ran. then go to www.piriform.com and download ccleaner and run that in safe mode.

If you have the Windows XP recovery disk you should boot into the disk and do a repair install of the Windows OS. You can also press 'F8' before or right after the Windows XP splash screen comes up and tell it to either boot into Safe Mode or "Boot with last configuration that worked". If you boot into safe mode, go to control panel and programs and uninstall the sp2 installation. Please comment back if you need further assistance. I will be providing a How-To on how to recover a system using system CDs today.

Good Luck,

reinstall xp and dont install sp2 go to microsoft update and let it install sp3 for you

Try starting in Safe Mode and check if you can start it? In case it starts in Safe Mode, you may do the system restore to the date it was working fine.

you could try editing the boot.ini to switch the vista install and xp install.

Reboot and keep tapping on F8 into Safe Mode. You can select "Last known good configuration" or continue In safe mode and do a system restore to the day before you installed the SP3. To do a system restore, go to Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools, System restore. Windows XP SP3 has some issues with certain programs giving the blue screen of death.

Your system thinks the "second" drive has precedence over the first ( your boot drive ) try switching the SATA cables between the two drives. There also might be a BIOS setting under Boot Order, sometimes you have to drill down to get to it for a particular drive.

Go to the below link to download that dll. http://www.pcrepaircentral.com/dlldownload_3011.html Click the small download button(lower right) You need to extract it to c:\windows\system32\ You will need to boot in safe mode to avoid that error on boot To do so press F8 repeatedly as it boots until a menu comes up, choose safe mode.

No, it's because Microsoft changed the way boot CDs work with SP2. You need an old CD (Windows XP SP1). I had the same problem here, notebook without floppy, it won't boot from the newer XP version CDs (SP2 or SP3) - but an old SP1 CD works!
(Those were all original Microsoft CDs, and the SP2 / SP3 CDs boot just fine on several other PCs I tested. It's just that some old hardware has a problem with the boot mode used on newer Windows CDs.)
