Ok, not sure if this will fix everybody's problem with system hang during boot, but
I was just able to get my system to boot ok, and I have been having this problem
for 4 months now.
I read a reply somewhere on here, in this mup.sys section, and the guy started talking
about his power supply.
I have also noticed alot of poeple talking about USB 2 card added, and USB hardware.
So, I tried booting up will all my USB devices either unplugged or turned off. I
have a USB Scanner, USB Printer, USB 6-1 card reader, USB Camera Connector, etc..
After turning off or unplugging them all, my XP Pro ADM system booted up just fine.
So, I tend to agree with the guy that this may be a power problem for many of us.
I have a 300W powersupply, but I guess it's not enough to power all my USB devices.
I didn't have this problem, untill after I added my USB Printer.
You should atleast attempt to test your system by unplugging/turning off all your
USB devices that you can, before you start reformatting and yanking cards out. It
may just fix your problem.
I guess I will just keep my scanner OFF so I can reboot anytime.
I just turn on my printer, card reader, etc, after I have successfully booted.
Have a nice day and I hope that this fixes the problem for atleast some of you.
