I have windows xp dell dimension 2400 since 2005, 1536 gig memory and 40 gig hard drive. I can't send a screen shot as it won't paste a "print-screen" before windows starts up. It tells me that my pc shut down incorrectly, options to start in Safe Mode, Normal, Last Configuration that started normally. There was another option I can't remember. It tells me there is a problem in system configuration due to a possible hardware or software recent installation. I haven't installed new hardware since this problem began about 8 months ago. Any suggestions? If I can supply another other info let me know. I have another start up problem but I'll send this and send other later in week. Thanks gammylynn
