> When I restart my computer it hangs at the POST with no display on
monitor.  The fans & drives are running and the hard drive access light
burns steady for awhile then nothing happens.  If I turn the computer off
and wait about an hour it will boot up fine.  Also, I can turn the computer
off for about 30sec. then start it - then turn it off for 30sec. - then
start... and about the 10th to 15th time it will go through POST and boot up
fine.  This problem came on gradual and is now to the point that it does it
everytime.  Please give me some ideas as to where to start troubleshooting.
