I useOk guys,

I just did a clean reinstall of windows xp pro on my gateway desktop.
I had all my printers, scanners and almost all of my software in as well as
all window updates including SP3.

I was loading Winfax and had a problem installing it.
When I restarted windows it hung up at the Windows XP screen with the
scrolling blue dots.
I rebooted to safe mode and uninstalled Winfax. Again it hung up. I went
back to safe mode at used system restore to last night. Restarted, same
problem.

I am 95% done with a 10 hour project (reinstallation of windows, drivers,
updates and all other programs I use).

What can I do?

Thanks,
Scott

stage 1 of 3
