I just did a clean upgrade to Win XP on my son's computer
that was running Win98. Athalon 388 with 40GB hard drive
and 128 mb RAM. There is no other peripherals hooked up
to it. Everything seems to install fine, but when it
boots up, it gets to the Welcome screen, plays the little
music and then promptly freezes up. I can get into safe
mode okay, but don't quite know what I am looking for.
There are no conflicts listed in the device manager. My
BIOS is set to boot from the HD first. I don't know what
else to try - HELP! Oh, and none of the suggestions in
the Knowledge Base are exactly the same problem and are
of no help.
