Hi there, My daughters HP iGo2000 laptop starts boot up sequence gets to screen prompting options to start in safe mode - last config etc. Then proceeds to start in Windows xp screen but stalls to blank screen - I am thinking HDD broken.
Can I replace a 2.5 HDD ATA 5 with a ATA 100?
Unfortunately I get so far into the start up Windows XP logo and the screen goes blank. Thats as far as I can go in Normal or last known mode - in safe mode I get a long list of drivers and nothing else

try pressing f8 just after post count.
then select normal mode. if no joy then restart & repeat part 1 again only this time select safe mode & when it comes to login.
logon as administrator it will ask you if you wish to system restore select no.
that should activate sys res. just select an earlier time.
