I tried the upgrade check program already, it didn't show any possible
problems.

The hardware is a PIII 600 MHz, 128 MB ram, 20GB IBM hard drive,
standard CD-ROM, Floppy, and an internal Zip drive. Its a gateway, so
it had all the gateway preinstalled stuff and has the big gateway logo
when the computer boots up. Should I try to reset the BIOS?

What, exactly, is your question?

Perhaps you are using USB keyboard and mouse. I have a computer which will
not "see" the USB Keyboard/mouse until Windows is loaded. We have an old
backup serial keyboard for such occasions.
