Blank blue screen with Service Pack 4

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsnt.setup (More info?)

Check that explorer.exe is the default shell to start. Look at the Reg_Sz
string value of;
"Shell"="Explorer.exe"
found at
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

You can try manually starting the shell Task Manager|File|New Task
%systemroot%\explorer.exe

To check Event Viewer for errors. Try running Task Manager|File|New Task
%systemroot%\system32\eventvwr.exe
