mup.sys

Yes I couldn't start windows (XP SP3 pro that is) - I got the BSOD and I couldn't even read it - what are you waiting to rclick My computer Properties >Advanced >Startup and Recovery >Uncheck the "Automatic Restart".
Do it now, I'll wait.
And all 3 safe mode options crashing on loading mup.sys.
I disconnected my PCI cards, tried to run the ubuntu live cd, rain danced etc etc.
Finally I created a windows live cd, yes I got the errors in part 15, replaced the missing files from another pc's I386, and it Booted.
Then chkdsk c: /r, took ages, then shut down and booting from hard drive : and here I am writing this, backing up and contemplating on a new HD.
Good to know.
