Hi Guys,

My 'puter illiterate work colleague has killed his 'puter again.

This time symptoms are:

~ Boot sequence runs fine, drops to black screen and hangs with cursor at
top left hand corner...

Simple as that !

Checked the bios (over the phone) HDD is found and OK...

Can't boot into Safe Mode.

B4 I dig in to work on XP, does anyone have any thoughts as to how to best
tackle this problem ??

Thanks for your assistance.

Neil
