I suspect there may be several possible causes for this problem. When I upgraded
to a Gigabyte GA-7N400-L motherboard this problem appeared. I did a clean XP install
and the problem went away - for a while. When I installed the Invidia nForce driver
(option 1 with the motherboard CD) the problem came back. Removing the driver (add/remove
sw) totally screwed up the bootup process. I did a new clean XP install WITHOUT installing
this driver and the problem has not reappeared. Can anyone see a pattern in all this?
