Hi, this happened to me a couple of times a long time ago, and I assumed it
was a driver issue. (Not sure if I was right or wrong, it was just a
conclusion I came to)
I booted into safe mode, removed all of the drivers in device manager, then
restarted, and let windows reinstall them. This seemed to cure the problem.
It hasn't happened since. It was over a year ago.
I was running win98.
Hope this helps.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Windows 98 SE Problem


Dear All,
     I turn my computer on and wait till the windows is getting started but
as soon as it tries to show my desktop it does nothing but showing a
complete black screen with the active mouse pointer at the center of
darkness.In such a case my windows doesn't start anything and I am forced to
embark on restarting my computer and after reloading I have to use safe mode
just to get back to my own Windows.
     I wonder if you could tell me what wrong is with my computer and what
action should be traken in order not to have this problem anymore.I do not
have the same problem with another computer or even with another operating
system.I mean this problem is speciallized for Windows 98 SE.

     Thanks in anticipation for any help
Be Well,
Ehsan Shams
