Having installed Windows 2000 Pro (and reinstalled modem driver for my notebook), I tried restarting machine. At the Windows 2000 logo, the screen froze. I tried to reinstall win2000 thinking that might solve the problem.
When I reboot the machine and press F8 to enter safe mode, i get a light blue background which says Windows 2000 prof and the small box that says preparing start-up....but it just hangs.
How can I either reinstall or get windows 2000 to work again. there must be some conflict of some sort.
I dont have a boot disk or emergency repair floppy (although I do have the installation CD which was upgrade disk from win 98). i do have access to another PC if that would help.
Any help gratefully received.
