Is it a virus?
Lately my HP pavilon 5500 laptop ran slow, than last night got a blue
screen , XP reporting 'cause some hardware or software problem, XP had
to shut down my lapton to protect my files.
Now it won't boot up.Can't even boot on my CD-rom, trying to use Norton
to get in.
I get the window logo where it sit's for a half minute, HD light
blinking, than the blue screen,than re-boots it's self.
Is it a hardware problem or virus?
Thx, Julius

Hardware or corrupted system files. Contact HP tech support.

Please cross-post rather than, as you have just done, multi-post.
To cross-post, place the newsgroup names, separated by commas, in the
'Newsgroups:' line.
The advantage is that the full thread will appear in each newsgroup,
everyone will get the benefit of ALL the replies, you will have to keep up
with just one newsgroup, efforts by those who reply will not be duplicated
or ignored, and for those who read more than one of the involved newsgroups
any message cross-posted will be marked 'read' after reading in one
newsgroup.

Also, please choose newsgroups carefully, and try not to cross-post to more
than three or four for the same message.

pretty sure it's a hardware problem... booting from a cdrom would not
have involved any software already on the system and therefore would not
have been stopped by any software on the system - if you can't boot from
the cdrom then it seems like it's almost certainly a hardware problem...
