Got BSOD now Windows won't start?

Question

Ok i put in my new flash drive today and as soon as i plugged it in i got a BSOD. Now when i try to start my computer Windows XP won't start. It won't start in safe mode either. It was working just fine before i plugged in the flash drive and now this. What can i do besides reinstall Windows?

Answer 1

It all depends on what error message it gives you when it can't start

Answer 2

Remove it (if you haven't already)

Try rebooting without the flash drive plugged in.... Your computer may be treating it as a bootable device
