POST startup problem
I usually get a initial screen, makers bios etc, then the post screen with
drives, ports etc, then when I image POST is finished, I get the Win Logo etc and all goes fine. But often the screen pauses indefinitely on the post screen and the sys does not go into windows. Sometimes too I do not get the post screen, the sys just goes straight to win logo. I have run SFC, etc, and looked carefully at the sys bios screen, I have taken the floppy drive at seek out etc, "Quick POST" is ticked. sometimes the sys logs on OK, usually it is slow, but then when it hangs, I have to deep boot to get it going. Any ideas please ? -- David To reply please REMOVE spam block |

It's one of those problems where you need to remove components and try them in another similar machine.... |
