Moin, you can try several options: 1. boot with F8 and let Windows create a bootlog.txt, you can see, opening this file with wordpad, what is causing problems. Check your system, if there are problems with any device-driver, update your device-drivers. 2. If you can boot Win98, run regclean first, then boot into DOS only and run scanreg /fix and then scanreg /opt. See, if anything is better then. 3. After all you could uninstall every application, that causes trouble and reinstall. 4. Search in the Micro$oft-Knowledge-base. Good luck, mfg, Carl.
