Hello. Thanks for responding. It get to the the windows "Wecome" screen just after logon. It sits on this screen for several seconds, then goes to a blue screen which is blank except for a white arrow cursor. I have let it sit on that screen for as long as a half hour, thinking window is doing something "under the hood". Eventually however, I the only way out is to power down. Ctrl-Alt-Del will bring a short flash of an arrow+hourglass, then it sits there. Yes I can get into the BIOS by hitting esc just before windows starts. Why does you mean does the motherbd post ok? I don't hear any beeps if that's what you mean. Yes, it will boot to safe mode.
