Entering Safe mode
Reboot your computer
while holding or tapping
the F8 key. Choose Safe
Mode or Last Known
Good Configuration
and press Enter.
The Safe Mode allow a
boot with only the minimum
required system drivers.
If this works fine you
will know that one of
the drivers and/or programs
that you are normally
using on start up are
causing the problem and
you will have to trouble
shoot by adding back components
one at a time.
Last Known Good Configuration
Common problems that
can be solved by choosing
the Last Known Good Configuration.
1) You can see the BIOS,
hardware detection during
booting, also can see
the Windows XP Logo, then
the video suddenly blacked
out after Win XP fully
booted up. No video signal,
monitor's LED start to
flash. Num lock can be
toggled, meaning system
is not hang. Pressing
the Power Button will
automatically trigger
system shutdown.
This may be due to incorrect
loading of video driver.
