I was having a booting issue a month ago or so. It would get past the splash screen and then stop loading. Did a reinstall with complete format.

I usually format about once a year to get all the crap off that MS saves over time. Seems to make everything run a bit faster and smoother.

I'm doing it again right now on the desk top. I guess we will see whats happening. I suspect since the PC has not shut down already that it is not a mother board or HD issue since it would not stay on more than a min or two earlier and when it stopped booting after the splash screen I could leave i on for several minutes to see if it would do anything and it would still stay powered on.
