Errors in XP install

ok I tried installing XP last night and when it got to Registering Programs, I got a BSOD. I started it over and it went pass that, but now right after then Windows XP Professional loading screen, I get a BSOD saying something is wrong with the registry. Is there anyway to like totally delete the registry and start it new?
 
If it was a clean install, just start the setup from scratch again.

If it happens a second time, then I would check the compatability wizard and see if it can find anything that could be incompatable.
 
try booting to your xp cd and goto the recovery console. Try running "chkdsk /r" and this should fix the registry if possible. Also try to boot to safe mode and do a restore back to before you added the last software/hardware. You could also try booting to last known good configuration (This rarely works, but that doesn't mean it won't)
Check this site for more infor on fixing reg....

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
