I running a dual pentium (xeon) 1 gig of memory; nividia
128 g force video card. XP pro with service pack 1 plus
hot fixes. This just started happening. XP Pro freezes
(the little bar stops) on start up. I'll shut the system
(turn off power nothing else works) down. Restart...put in
the safe mode. I'll restart from there and it will work.
I have tried everything. I have all the latest video
drivers etc. There are no erro messages to speak of and I
have everything shut down on start-up that I don't need.
The computer company can't even figure it out. Is there
any thing besides a complete reinstall of xp pro that will
work!

thanks
