Just checked. No luck, it's not getting any IP address (our DHCP server is not getting any request from this machine). Any other ideas?

If so, could you try doing something like using pslist to see if explorer.exe is running - and if not, could you maybe use psexec to launch explorer.exe?

If that fails, can you actually press Ctrl-Alt-Del and get any response when it hangs? On 23 July 2010 10:17, Miguel Gonzalez <miguel_3_gonza...@yahoo.es> wrote: Dear all, I'm running out of ideas. I have a Windows XP SP3 machine that boots up but you reach the point just before you get the explorer.exe logon welcome window so I get the mouse pointer a complete blue screen but it goes no further. If I try safe mode, it doesn't go further either (but you get a beautiful black screen with the Safe mode text all around). Since i could access offline the event log files with a Windows live CD, I saw an ID=20 error related to google update, I disabled that service but no love. I have disabled some other services like SQL Server express, remove last security updates and still nothing. Any ideas I can try?
