That's a kernel panic. Try holding down the shift key as it boots, this puts the mac in 'safe mode' and will tell you if some other driver than Apple's base ones, anon-apple pref pane or a startup item are causing the issue. If it boots ok, look at those issues. -- Bruce Johnson "Wherever you go, there you are" B.
