Grant,
It has got to be a driver conflict. What does Event Viewer display as any
error messages? I have a similar problem on Statup if I have my wireless
receiver for my mouse and keyboard attached to a USB port on my xb 3000
docking station. The machine will boot up if the USB is detached but will
not if it is attached when booting up. The screen stays blank, all the blue
lights are ON but nothing happens until I do a Hard Shut Down then restart my
computer with the receiver detached the after the machine starts I plug the
reciever in and all is well.
