Linda, What exactly is coming on? Do you mean that as the PC is booting, a dialog box pops up stating that "New Hardware Has been detected and PC is searching for install software"? If that is the case, the PC is seeing something attached that is has not configured and is attempting to configure it. Does it give you any other indication of what it is trying to ADD?
