Title: Windows cannot start
Post by: Spectral on January 07, 2008, 10:44:13 AM

When i press the "power on" button for my computer, all that shows is a black screen. You can hear the sound of the PC working, but windows just doesn't start up. It only occasionally starts up after a very long time, and even so it happens rarely. Might i know what may be wrong, and the solutions to fix it? I'm using windows XP professional, and it was reformatted very recently. (Yesterday)
Thanks in advance!!
