weird

When I run the xp repair console and fixmbr it will boot and run but back to not booting again on reboot.
scanned for virus, none found
scanned for spyware, some found, nothing serious.
did find a leaking cap on the MB.
Leaking cap on MB? Why waste time reinstalling Windows XP knowing it will have to be done all over again when you replace the defective MB, tomorrow, next week or next month?
Replace MB. Format Drive C. Reinstall Windows. And you are good to go,
