Hi guys,
Whenever I load up Windows XP, it loads only until the WinXP Logo screen comes up, then the monitor goes dark greyish and just sits there.

The only way I can use the PC is through Safe Mode.

How can I fix my problem?

Thanks In Advance

Try booting into safe mode and then doing a system restore.

have you installed anything recently? if you have, try uninstalling that to see if it helps. also at the safe mode screen there should be an option for load last good configuration. that might fix it.

Thanks for the reply again, I haven't installed anything recently, but I'll double check that. I'll try your second tip as well.
Thanks Again :)

EDIT: Thanks a lot, your second tip worked, back to normal now.

Once again, thanks a lot :)
