Did you tried to run XP in Safe mode?

If you currently installed a driver or so, you could remove it when you
are in safe mode.

Press F8 before booting.

has he got the original installation cd? Stick that in the hard drive
and run the repair option when it comes up...

If that doesn't cure it, I'd go for a reinstall...

He is not currently using a domain.  But said he will try that anyway.

blank except for the shutdown link




I searched using Google and searched the MSKB but found nothing
describing his particular situation.

Good call Rocky :-)

Does hitting Ctrl+Alt+Del bring a log on screen up? Is there anything on
screen at all?
