    What happens to Windows XP when it is a blue screen?
    Meaning it will not load and the error is a windows profile error?

    See Blue Screen of Death - Wikipedia for a description of blue screen errors. The error numbers and message provided on the screen are your only hints as to what is causing the error. The error codes can be researched at Microsoft Support for known common causes or via a general web search. The codes are also documented in various device driver and resource kits for your specific operating system (XP).
