XPE Boot problem - Blank Screen

Hi There,

I am trying to boot XP Embedded, what happens is that FBA runs fine and
reboots as expected but I am getting a blank blue screen right after the
reboot. It stays there forever. I am not sure if this is video driver
related, I am using Information Appliance and found out that Headless driver
was included, I am not sure if that is causing the problem. Any suggestion
would help. I was able to run XP Pro on my system successfully. I am using
2Gig Compact Flash.

Thanks
SC

Have you tried removing the headless driver and rebuilding?

Although I've never used it, I would expect it to stop video all
together.

If this is a test build, then you might want to check the date and time in
the BIOS to be sure it matches the date and time of the build. If the target
system is off by 120 days, you will only get a blue screen with a mouse
cursor.
