its same in safe mode.. also no content... i didnt change windows xp in anyway i think, i unistalled some office components only (i have both office 2003 and 2007) and uninstalled office 2007 groove mui, i encounter these problems the first time, usually i install my XP myself, this time only i gave it to a specialist who has fixed troubles before which i couldnt handle, as i encountered a problem before. the prolem was, that first i got the message that the intel (pro) wirless network connection prevents windows from hibernating, you may have to update driver - the laptop had been on in this state for a while because i failed to notice it with closed lid, when i opened it and saw the message i switched it off, then it didnt come on again, it tried till windows starting screen, then crushed or so and restarted again. that guy installed windows again, ,since then i face those troubles... some other bugs also started ocurring, i cant click links from a mail in outlook express (internet page doenst open automatically anymore) and again that wireless thing happend, but i have updated this driver now...
