I am having problems with the start up of my computer. When I try to start it
up, before Windows loads the computer will freeze up. I cannot start up the
computer in safe mode or do anything else. The computer always freezes up
after a certain amount of time no matter what I try. When it freezes, the
screen either goes black, white, or vertical bars of black, white, and gray
appear in various different patterns across the screen. I think that if I can
get a boot disk I will be able to find the problem. I just can't get onto the
computer at all before it freezes up. My computer came preinstalled with
Windows XP, so I don't have an installation disk. I've searched for a way to
make a boot disk, but every solution I've found uses the floppy drive, which
neither my computer nor the computer I'm using now have. Does anyone know
what the problem could be? If it helps, the computer having this problem is a
laptop.
