Major Problem

ok i am getting annoyed now

i am getting the same problem i had beforehand on my old pc!

when windows vista loads up the bar does a few cycles and then freezes and moved on bar at a time then after 20 minutes when it finaly gets into vista it won't connect to any networks.

what could it be?

i am guessing it might be one of my usb devices but i only have two plugged in and thats my g11 keyboard and saitek 3200 mouse?

help please!!

Presuming you're correct about it being a USB device: Remove both and see if the problems disappear. Reconnect one at a time and see which device causes it to re-appear. Then perhaps try reinstalling/downloading new drivers for said device. Do you use a USB hub? If so try connecting directly to the machine instead.

driver irql blue screen

so i am guessing it is something serious.

i am getting it checked over tomorrow and if something is not working it will be rma'ed

That could be RAM or CPU. Are you sure you're running your RAM and CPU at proper voltages?

Or it could just be vista being a *******. I had a similar problem to this, my pc would take ages to start up for no apparent reason and would blue screen randomly.

Just reformat and reinstall, just to rule that possibility out.
