Going thru normal procedure for shut down of XP Pro last nite,
the last I saw after "saving your setting" was
"Windows is shutting down". It was taking a VERY long time, so I left
it and went to bed. This A.M. the same "Windows is shutting down
screen" was still there.
I physically shut it down and on reboot it got as far as
"Loading our personal settings", the screen went black and STAYED black.
I did a physical restart again and did F8 into "safe mode" and the same
persistent black screen again.
The only way I can boot now is in F8 and use the "Last good
configuration setting" and pray. That's how I'm able post this.
BTW I did a system restore to 2 previous dates-no help.
