    Windows 7 sometimes freezes during startup


    Hi there,

    I'm having a problem where sometimes during the startup of Windows 7 it freezes after the 'Starting Windows' text but before the logo appears. I have to hard reset the computer and I am asked to run 'Startup Repair' or 'Start Windows Normally'.

    I have reinstalled Windows 7 and it still doesn't work and I have also run Startup Repair which found nothing.

    Any Ideas?

    How do you know it freezes during the "Starting Windows" message? (Does the moving bar stop?) How long have you waited to see if it'll continue?

    Thanks for your reply.

    I know it freezes because the Windows logo never appears, HDD activity also appears to stop (I think). I have waited for about 5 minutes and Windows 7 has still not started up.
