My computer keeps locking up when I start it in the Windows XP screen the
little blue bar just goes and goes and goes.(it did this for an hour) The
only way I can get it to start up is in safe mode with Networking. I
completely restored it last week to new settings and did all the updates for
Windows. I have only had it a few months what am i doing wrong?
 
Can you boot using the XP CD? If you can get into the recovery console type
in chkdsk /r and follow the on screen prompts. As you can get into safe mode
then you can also go start\run and type in cmd and click ok or hit enter on
your keyboard and then type in chkdsk /r and hit enter on you keyboard and
follow the on screen prompts. You will have to reboot to let it run. This
should remove any unseen error flags that maybe hidden by the windows screen
or any bad boot flags. Post back if this doesn't help. TTFN .
