I have posted this 3 different times over the past 2 weeks
and no one at all has responded. By chance were my posts
overlooked or is it not that common of a problem?

My startup screen halts when i try to load windows. I just
reformated the drive and reloaded windows on it. It works
in another computer but not in this one. No matter if i
choose start from last known config ect.. I have changed
nothing in the bios and it has worked on this same
computer before. When i choose to load in safe mode it
stops at this

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition\WINDOWS\System32
\Drivers\Mup.sys

what is Mup.sys and how could i solve this probleM?
..

now there are updates to this post...
I have formated and reinstalled windows on the same hd..
does not fix the problem and the hd works on another
computer so its not the hd. I have turned off usb support
didnt fix it so i turned it back on. I also removed and
reinserted many of these to see if it was the problem.
Ram 1 stick at a time, cdrom and dvdroms both, removed the
usb cords from the motherboard. I have tried everything
that i can think of.. can anyone help?

No one has any obligation to respond. For myself, I
very quickly pass by posts that don't get to the point
quickly, or have a bunch of misspellings or poor
grammar.

Turning off USB support in the BIOS may or may not help here.
Try physically disconnecting all of the USB peripherials and
see if that helps.

thanks for this one also. but i had already found that
post. I tried removing everything so far except my vidio
card. and will try that this coming weekend. I have
removed usb 6 chanel sound. 1 ram stick at a time..
nothing seems to be working.
 
This mup.sys problem seems to crop up in different areas during the boot
process for different people. I just had a quick look aroung and found this
forum post http://www.annoyances.org/exec/forum/winxp/t1047532372 which has
a few other peoples problems and some fixes. Watch out for the line wrapping
if you try and go to the site.

May or may not help.

I just wanted to say thanks. That site has some good info
and i am going to try it.

1. going to try and disable mup.sys see if that works.
2. if that doesnt work i will try to get a new processor
and see if that works :)

It is probably not mup.sys that is the problem. That driver is simply the
last one to load the is "echo"ed to the monitor. After that point the OS
hands over control to the higher level (32 bit) drivers which produce the
GUI.

Based on what I understand from reading your post, it may be worth while to
try another video card. Video drivers and video card issues seem to be a
leading cause of the OS not going into GUI mode on start-up.

YMMV
Good Luck,
