Hi guys I encountered a problem last night. I updated my windows media player. It downloaded everything and installed it and when it restarted my comp. i would see everything up into the window logo screens load. I see the screen it loads and then the screen is black. It doesnt say no signal its just black. I tried going into safe mode but it just hangs there when loading the files. I tried putting in a xp cd to use the recovery tool and it goes no hdd found. Does anyone know a solution and I really dont want to reformat my raid drives which has the xp installed.

First check your BIOS and see if the hard drive is there. check your cable. runs scan disk if you can boot to the command prompt. If everything is good then go try booting from you last restore point. But if your install disk can't see a hard drive I would look there. It may have nothing to do with media player. just the standard advise.
for the future you can download PE builder and make a custom restore disk for yourself that makes this a lot easier / work better the XP recovery
