Im literally trying anything I can think of now crystal

But yep, after every 'attempt' we need to know if we're getting anywhere

Question ~ when you boot does the SOUND of windows come up? (the little jingle before the desktop pops up)

***EDIT*** Switch on all those that you disabled before

was it after you did the update for Internet Explorer 8 that you had this problem?

Do you have the Windows xp disc that came with your computer?

sorry for delay doing school run, right i did what we said and repaired errors and tried again and guess what.....no it still black.so i rebooted by pressing f8 and instead of clicking on safe mode with network i tried the option where it says (your last working settings) and it loaded up ok but was very very slow so i am now back in safe mode.

maybe give you new idea i dont know.

p.s ok will enable all again and not sure about the jingle sound dont think so

hi, yes it has been a week or so since i updated not 100% but about that time thats why i asked if it could be the update that done this

crystal9

update- just enabled all of them again except for 1 which wouldn't let me which was start up common.

i then logged off and just clicked restart and it all came on fine slight problems with internet xplorer saying cant display this page but i refreshed and it worked altho seems very slow

gone back to safe mode as far to slow to load

So when you restart your computer it boots up to your windows desktop okay?

Is the boot up still slow or is it when you open and use IE8 that it slows down.

aliEnRIK

If you reload the graphics driver it might be ok when you use those settings

crystal9

the load up seems ok just seems using internet is very slow now so maybe it is ie8??

how do i reinstall the graphics driver please?

A suggestion: try using firefox (it's a browser like Internet Exploder)
http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/

or Chrome (not a fan personally)
http://www.google.com/chrome

or Opera
http://www.opera.com/

Try one of the above and see if internet use is any quicker? This will help rule in/out your IE update?
