When booting up my PC the XP banner screen comes up and hangs there.
It will not go ahead and come to a full desktop page. This only
happens when I completely shut down my PC and then restart it later
on. If I leave my PC on all the time I do not not have a problem. Do
you folks have any suggestions how I can cure this problem?
Thanks for your help.
 
Pete, the next time this happens restart and tap F8. If you get a Menu
select Safe Mode. If XP loads Ok, do a system restore. Start>All
Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore. Go back a week or so if
possible.
