An Annoying Blank Window!

I checked, Micah.
GDSys is not there on my system.
Thanks

Jay

Hi Jay, Even though your post has slipped of the first page, your difficulty hasn't been forgotten. I can't say that we've come up with "the one earth-shattering solution". but the efforts continue. Let's get a log of the Drivers that are installing/failing to install when you Boot. Go to Start - Run - MSCONFIG - BOOT.INI (tab) Put a Checkmark in front of /BOOTLOG Next: Above that column of items is a button labeled "Check All Boot Paths" click on it. If all is good, then it should read: "It appears that all Boot.ini lines for Microfoft operating systems are OK." Click OK to close that screen. Click - Apply at the bottom of the System Configuration Utility Screen. Then click - CLOSE - Restart When your machine boots again, use your Windows Explorer to open the following file in NotePad: C:\Windows\ntblog.txt Copy and past the contents of ntblog.txt into your next reply. Best Regards

Hi Dough! All though it's been close to two days since I heard from you, I know for sure that you and Micah will not rest till this issue is solved! How do I know? Just a gut feeling, I guess! As to your new message, I am sorry I do not follow the part where you have instructed me to: "…use your Windows Explorer to open the following file in NotePad: C:\Windows\ntblog.txt" Grateful for a detailed instruction for just this. Thanks and my best regards Jay
