Windows XP Startup

Hi!

Could someone please help. I have been able to recover from many incidents
but am stuck on this one. The computer will not boot into Windows but will
allow me to start in safe mode. I have already restored to a previous date.
No luck. Putting in the Windows disc didn't help either. Presumeably my
problem is a driver but how do I find out which one. I haven't installed any
new programs or hardware for a few weeks.

Cheers
Deb

try pressing and holding down
the shift key right after you
select "normal boot" from
the menu.

keep it held down until the icons
on the desktop begin to appear.

there are a number of possible
causes for your issue. however,
this trick may or may not work
for this particular instance.

Instead of safemode try selecting the other option "Enable VGA.." If Windows
boot, go to the Display properties in the control panel and try to change
your settings. Yesterday mine was set at 640x480, 16 colors and 4 bit and
windows won't boot normal. I don't know why?
