      A recent hardware or software change. Have you added or removed any software recently. You may need to reinstall XP - or just switch to Linux (Fedora Core's good)

        Install and use recovery console. Then try to change your boot.ini file to set your computer to start up with no logo and list all driver that are load on the screen. Any driver cause any problem to your system will stop and display on the screen. Then you can disale or use roll back function to load it functional driver. Read this article[^] for more information.

          In Safe Mode, Go to Device Manager->System Devices->And remove anything with a bios word. Then Restart to normal mode. With this trick, you will force reinstalation of all drivers. When all drivers are installed, in Device manager sometimes you will see a double driver, one is operational, the other is in conflict. Remove the operational and restart. If you remove the driver with a conflict, it will come back. ps: I don't remember that i have tested in Windows XP. But other version of windows worked.
