1050 Megahertz thunderbird, XP Home, GeForce2, 512 megs of Ram, heatsink/cooling fan, etc.
Heres my problem:
Well, one day I start up my computer to work on some reports, and I get this kind little XP message right before windows starts saying I need to check my hard drive for "consistancy". Anyway, I go ahead and let the thing do its business (which took around 10 minutes), and I get into windows normally. After I'm done, I shut off the computer with the button on the case(yeah, I know). Several days later, I start up the computer again and it gives me the message saying I shut down the computer wrong, and I can either A)Start in safe mode B)Start in safe mode with network something-or-other C)Start in safe mode with command prompt D) Start windows with "last known good configuration, or E) Start Windows normally.
When I try to start it in any of the "safemode" versions, I get a list of files that last about the whole monitor in DOS, and then it freezes at "amdagp.something". When I try to start Windows normally, I get through the little XP startup thingy (the Little XP Home with a fake status bar under it), but it freezes with a black screen afterward. I've tried everything to the extent of my knowledge, and I now hand my problem over to ya'll. PLEASE HELP ME!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!
