Rebooting on startup

[DavidP]

I updated my friend's emachine for her from 2000 to XPpro (SP2). I
went and downloaded all the updates then when I rebooted it keeps
rebooting when it goes from the emachine screen to the XP screen before
it gives me any options in the XP screen its back starting up. Any
advice?

Hit F8 to get to boot up into safe mode. Go to control panel and select "system',

"hardware", "device" and see what your "dispaly adapter" shows. If a yellow
question mark your video driver may have been corrupted. double click on the
"display adapter" and right click on the device type. I have disabled the
driver for a similar probelm and recovered.
