On a clean installation of XP, the installation starts,
copies the files need, then on the very first restart of
the computer, I get a blank screen with a blinking cursor
in the upper left hand corner of the screen. This is as far
as the installation gets. I have removed the modem and
video card, formated the drive, and reinstalled XP and it
still stops on the first reboot. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance, shot

After the first reboot during the installation, the screen
is blank or black with a cursor in the upper left hand
corner, blinking, but unable to write.
