Try going to the BIOS,go to exit menu,click the,"Load
Setup Defaults",this loads default values for all set-
up options, then click,"save changes and exit".Youre
basically loading set-up as it should,from factory
settings,if set-up gets confused as yours is,this should
re-set to normal.

Hi,
Usually when I start WXP home, and before the Windows
screen appears, I get the message:
" The last attempt to restart the system from its
previous
location failed. Attempt to restart again?."
I'm then given two choices:
"Delete restoration data and proceed to system boot
menu."
(This choice works)
"Continue with system restart." (This doesn't work).

Why am I getting this message? How do I stop it?

As well, during start-up and before the above message
appears, I sometimes get a blue screen of 1/2 second
duration which is full of text. I cannot react fast
enough
to do a shift/print screen. Does anyone know what this
is
all about (and how to prevent it?)
