The DMI is the Desktop Management Interface and when it locks up
like this it is due to a hardware issue, most likely it is loading a bad
driver...  probably a video driver, (at least that would be my guess).
Are doing a clean install or an upgrade from Windows2000?   A
Windows2000 driver should work, but I have heard that some will
cause this problem...
