My god, I go into Vista to update my media library, I reboot the machine and it hangs on the XP loading screen. Knew that wasn’t good so I turned the pc off. “Vroooooom” it says and I get the safe mode screen. There I selected ‘boot normally’ and we’re here again. I hope this isn’t going to be the standard bullshit now that I’ve installed Vista service pack 2 for real!
If there’s anything I can point out I guess it would be the videocard. That thing has always been doing weird shit. Nvidia GeForce 7300 LE, need I say more? nv4mini.sys, 6.14.10.9147. Driver version 9.1.4.7. See this user here? It’s similar from what I get from time to time, though a hang is new. Usually windows starts up with rgb dots when my videocard fails, I shut it down blindly and then poke around on the cables and the next boot is fine. Arrrr! I bet it’s the video card.
Now let’s just hope I’ll never get that one again.
I do remember I had a black screen white mouse pointer thing over a year ago…
