I am having a hard time booting my machine which operates on windows XP
Professional--latest version.
When I boot it goes to the windows apology screen and highlights "start
windows normally".
After doing this about 7 or eight times, I finally get the starting windows
screen with the little blue blobs runnning across the centre. then it stops
on a black screen and I have to re-boot and it brings me back to the same
screen about five times before I finally get "Welcome".
Then after I finally get on sometimes it reboots by itself later on.
The local Pc Shop doesn't have a problem with my machine on their workbench.
I've checked all the logs and found two things.
-- WDM call returned error:4200
--NT event Log Consumer: could not retreive SAD; 0x80041002.
I've tried uninstalling all periphereals and booting and it didn't help
