I recently installed windows xp home edition upgrade. I am now having a problem where there is a quite often a lock up at the windows xp page. I am talking about the page where the green led lights are running across the bar. the lights will run across several times and then lock up and I have to re-boot when it doesnt lock up there is a microsecond slow down almost as if it is about to hang but then ist continues and windows will load normally. I have gone into safe mode and restrted with no difference. sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't
Any ideas????????
 
Bruce, how old is your system? Power Supply in good shape?
