Hi,
I'm having a computer issues I can't actually fix myself. Basically, when it boots up it goes through all the bios and when it's suppose to load windows I get a grey screen and the keyboard locks up. It also does the same thing when I put in my Windows XP Installation CD. So I can't even reinstall/repair! It also won't work on safe mode or Using last known good configurations. It's a pretty new HDD, about 3 weeks old, so not sure how it could be that at all. Please help!

Try the WinXP or (perhaps) the General Hardware forum
