Azion Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 Hey all,I've had a recent problem with my Windows XP Pro SP2 install. It loads up until the logon screen. At this stage there's nothing on the screen, no cursor, just a black screen. My keyboard still responds to Numlock on/off, etc, so I'm guessing it's not stalled. 1 out of 3 times it boots up properly and I get the logon screen. I've tried safe mode and it boots everytime perfectly.Does anybody have any idea what this could be, or maybe a suggestion of someway of monitoring the boot process?Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluberti Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 When a machine boots fine in safe mode, but has issues booting normally, it's going to be a driver issue, or a startup service/startup item issue. Use msconfig when you are in safe mode to disable all non-Microsoft services and any and all startup items you can, and reboot normally and see what happens.
