Is it giving you an error when you try and boot? If so, what error?

We need a LOT more information to help you quickly and efficiently.
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I am not very knowledgeable - I am a user only and not a "mechanic" with the computer.

I did not see an error message. The "dump" jumped out at me and I hit the power button. Later when trying to boot with the Windows XP disc that came with my laptop it gave me an error, I believe, 7. But I can't be sure.
