Question #77816 on Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/77816

    Status: Answered => Open

eipapp is still having a problem:
I did as you said and was able to "disable automatic restart on system
failure" which brought up a blue screen which said that "A problem has been
detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer."

I then loaded the Win XP CD and elected Recovery Console where I could run a
chkdsk. Errors were found and fixed and HOORAY I can now load Windows from
the boot menu or work in Ubuntu if I choose. In other words, things are
working normally, THANK YOU for all your help !!!
