I am sure it is not the bios, all was well before sp3. Both my computers are
identical with identical bios settings. One which had the WD Firewire my book
attached and turned on all the time sp3 was installed has no problems re
booting. The other which had the WD drive off during the sp3 installation
will not reboot
if it is later on at the time of the boot. Once xp up and running WD drive
can be attached as normal but must be off for boot ups. Uninstalling and re
installing sp3 with it on doesn't help still won't re boot with it on.
