Installing Windows
Apologies - I really should not attempt to respond without glasses on.
That should read "Vendor/Model - not Modem:" "R. McCarty" wrote in message news:... Minimum specs such as Vendor/Modem - CPU Speed and total RAM helps us to help you. What was the original OS of the machine ? It may not meet minimum requirements. My first suggestion would be to review the BIOS settings. From your description it seems like a core driver is not starting/loading. Also was this a "Fresh" install or did you attempt to upgrade an existing OS ? "Marv" wrote in message ... I have an old system that I am trying to setup for my grand kids. I installed XP but when it tries to restart it froze at the point that the logo screen shows up. I have tried to restart using the XP installation disk and booting from the CD but it appears to load the drivers and then in the windows setup screen it shows Setup is starting Windows and then hangs. Any thought as to where I should start looking for the failure to get beyond this point? Marv |
