Rick,
Well I ran the fix disk Then did a through virus scan. The scan was clean it
checked over 208,600 files. I also ran regscrup and cleaned up about 20
errors. The system has successfully started 5 consecutive times. The problem
could also be a flaky power supply. I probably will give a little more time
into looking for a new system. I hate to go 64 bit because of legacy
devices. Karen has a dye sublimation printer. Also not sure if my old modem
will work. I guess that my hp printer would also have to be replaced. Oh how
I hate the thought of replacement.

Problem points to weakening mother board or hard drive. If you can get it
to once again boot, I would suggest that you defrag and run disk check on
your hard drive.
