Broken In
Hi Guys,
I have got two problems in my hand you may suggest solution to one or both whatever possible. Both related to Windows XP SP2 installation
PATIENT: Pentium III 1 GHz 256MB RAM 40 GBx2 IDE HDD's i810 Chipset mainboard,PCI LAN card. Dual boot cofiguration with win98 on C:\ that is primary and XP on extended partition.
PROBLEM:
1. When powered on the system starts reaches the OS choices menu after that Winxp when chosen (or even by default) attempts to load... IMMEDIATELY the winxp logo flashes in the centre for half a second and then screen goes blank system keeps running like that for ages with HDD activity ON.
After that power reset is done then again the system is started this time comes up to complain of a failed start and give choice menu whether to go in safe mode or to start normal. Here choice is made "Start Windows Normally" then screen goes blank for two seconds then windows logo comes in centre and stays there as is normal and then rest all goes fine.
Complication is arising because now sometimes it takes a third or fourth time to start normally. Also I should mention here that when still it wouldn't start I'd go to safe mode XP and then restart and then 100% it starts the next time.
Medication till now:
Uninstalled the recently installed unwanted programs like tweakui, internet speed optimiser...
Did the check by System file Checker
Don't know what else should i try anyway
Probable Suspects:
I did the DELETE AT SIGHT inside the Doc n Settings\username\local settings\temp folder means removed everything clean
Cleaned the registry extensively for following terms Norton , Symantec , Antivirus, Internet Security ... of course after that I've reinstalled Norton Internet Security 2006
I've seen this problem earlier also somewhere but that time OS was reloaded this time I wish to solve it out. Help invited.
Second problem I think i should discuss in sparate thread
