I re booted and during Windows XP Media start up I had several patterns of vertical lines until the screen went black again and froze. Obviously windows isnt starting correctly for some reason. I can start in Safe Mode and have managed to restore a previous restore point without luck. Can anyone help? Thanks Steve
