Hello,
I am working on my friends laptop (An HP G60), trying to fix the problem it is having. It is extremely slow to boot up, not in the windows boot screen, but after. It has a blank screen with just the cursor, which can be moved, present. It sits like this for at least 5 minutes, and either blue screens, or gets to the logon screen, which it too takes a long time to get past. Once at the desktop, it normally bluescreens after a short amount of time. I have tried it in msconfig "no program boot" mode to no avail (I think as it still acted up and was very slow, so I set it back). I have also tried every combo of RAM and ran many memory scans and tests.
I dont know what the problem is at this point, the error seems pretty nondescript. Let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks,
Will
