hiya thanks to all you guys who helped,
after i posted the message some one gave me "regmechanic" to put on my pc. it found 211 registry errors, and cleared them all, which is great because my pc dosent crash anymore!
BUT, everytime i start my pc, it completely freezes on the windows 2000 screen, when the blue loading bar goes halfway along, i have to turn it off by the wall, and then it loads in perfectly!!!!!! it does this everytime
any ideas?? could norton antivirus be the problem?
thanks from jane
