BSOD troubles

[Fr33m4n]

I belive I have a seriously f'ed up XP install. I get on average about 11 BSOD's a day and IE is changing the default font of webpages and inputting russian characters sometimes, though FF renders everything just fine. So I figured I'd do a Repair install. But I can't, cause I don't get the option during install, and I think that's because XP is installed on a RAID 0 setup. I have a søipstreamed XP disc with tweaks made using nLite. I removed the winnt.sif file to get the Welcome to Setup screen but that didn't help. I also tried running the System File checker but it won't recognize my XP disc. So I'm kinda out of ideas. A clean install would be kinda hard at this point so I would prefer to avoid it, but I'd appricate any help in fixing the problem. My main frustration is that I can't steadily reproduce the BSOD so I don't really know where to begin. thx for any help in advance.

You could try to do a repair, but if you're infected or have some other sort of problem outside of the normal Windows directory structure, a repair install isn't going to fix anything. Note that the best place to start right now is probably configuring the machine for a complete memory dump, and letting us analyze one or two to see if we can pinpoint the problem.

if you want to try a repair create an xp c with just updates, not answer file and nothing else then use the F6 option at boot to load the raid driver.

A better place to start would be to scan for viruses and malware preferably from a boot cd like BartPe or something similar.
