R Rick \Nutcase\ Rogers Jun 25, 2004 #2 Hi Doug, First, start/run msconfig. On the boot.ini tab, is the /safeboot option checked? If so, undo it. Otherwise, please describe what happens when you try normal mode, and what you were doing with the system before this problem started. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP Associate Expert - WindowsXP Expert Zone Windows help - www.rickrogers.org
