We apologize for the inconvenience but Windows did not start successfully. A recent software or hardware change may have caused this.

If you your computer stopped responding, restarted unexpectedly or was automatically shut down to protect your files;choose "last known good configuration" to revert to the most recent settings that worked.

If a previous startup attempt was interrupted, due to a power failure or because the power or reset button was pressed, or if you aren't sure what caused the problem; choose "start windows normally".


SAFE MODE
SAFE MODE WITH NETWORKING
SAFE MODE WITH COMMAND PROMPT

START WITH LAST KNOWN GOOD CONFIGURATION

START WINDOWS NORMALLY

No Gobbldegook was present.

One thing I'm seeing that I didn't notice before (but maybe because it just flew by) is that after the RAM test, it says

"Operating in single channel dynamic paging mode"

Is there anything unusual or incorrect about that?

I'm posting from a 1.2 Gig Athelon w/ Windows 2k.

Disneyfan,

I'll download it but unfortunately I don't have a CD burner in the computer I'm posting from. If it will fit on my USB drive, can I boot from there? I think I saw that option under the BIOS.
