Guest palm harbor Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 I am running XP Home Edition in Boot Camp on a new iMAC. All seemed well until SP3. Now, when I try to boot up, the Spash Screen comes up with the progress bars and never gets further. I have to try a cold start a couple of times, and sometimes it will then boot up normally. A restore point doesn't help. A Microsoft technican added some update that changed a lot of registry settings, and it worked ok for a while, but now the problem is back again. The Boot Camp is current. Any thoughts?
