Please help!My system won't boot. Everything works fine until Windows starts booting,then it freezes.I checked the hard drive on another computer and it works fine. Suspect it might be BIOS, but could be wrong. Tried default settings - it changes nothing. PS. Safe-mode simply reboots system. Thanks in advance.

Can you please give us the list of your system and how you have configured it ?? IF IT AINT BROKE, DONT FIX IT A8N-SLI Deluxe AMD X64 3500+ Wnchst Corsair 2x512 DDR400 Dual Channel GV-NX6600128D PCIX Graphics Card Ggbyte GT Pro CPU Cooler Zalman VF700-CU VGA Cool

i would try changing video card to see if that helps

How did this all come about?

You checked the HDD on another computer? Do you mean you actually removed it and booted to it on another machine? When did the problem first start happening? What changes were made to the system immediately preceeding this? Life is more painless for those who are brainless.

Appreciate the interest. Actually, it's my girlfiend's computer. Apparently, it's been having problems(booting only on the second try) for a few days before this. The last program she loaded immediately prior was i-tunes for her ipod. When I connected the HDD to my machine it wouldn't boot at all. I then connected it as slave, installed a fresh copy of Windows and ran Scandisk & a virus check(negative). After this it worked fine as master. However, when I connected the HDD back to her machine it gave the same problems(sometimes it freezes on booting, sometimes it reboots automatically). I removed the video card but it didn't help. Config: Award BIOS,VIA motherboard, 40Gb HDD,Nvidia Geforce 4400,Samsung DVD-RW. Thanks, guys.

What is the status of her PSU?
