Some More Computer Help. - 12.05.2009, 02:56 AM

Yes, me again, this time, it's my turn to suffer.

This morning, my computer was rockin, being it's usual.
Nothing was bogging it down or anything...

But anyways, here's my issue.

When I first got home, put my backpack down, turned my powersurge on, then turned the computer on. With one SATA (500GB - Master); and one IDE (yes, IDE), 250GB (Slave)

It does it's usual thing, passes POST, and all, until it reaches the spash screen of XP (The bar loading thingymajig), after what seems to be like it'd usually be done, it goes black, just like usual, and it's SUPPOSED to go into the welcome screen... But, it turns black, and just restarts.

I know it's not my GPU, LAN Card, or my Sound card, or my RAM.

Already took em out, put new ram in, still same thing, and I think it's my boot configs.

Any advice? I was thinking about going into safemode, (which does the same thing, except, it just shows the drivers, and then just restarts), find out what driver it's sticking on, and replacing that file by hand, but that sounds really tedious, and would rather get somebody's else's advice before I do so.

I'm trying to keep the format, and the reinstall of XP (Since I have two partitions, 1 for data, and 1 for my OS....), as I did this before, and was a huge pain to have to deal with re-installing all the applications so the registries worked, so I just formatted then, but that was when I didn't have much information on the computer, I do now.

Help!
