When the usb drive is plugged in, go into the bios and the boot options and make sure the bios didnt put the usb as the first boot device for the hard drives. If it did then the system would try to boot off of the usb instead of the hard drive.

Drives me insane that motherboards change the hard drive boot order when you plug in a drive. Why on earth do they do that?

What about before that screen? Could you see the bios screen at the start of the boot up, did you see the windows logo as well?

Sometimes that is the best thing. When you have problems that go too deep in Windows then you have to decided, which is faster, reinstall or keep trying to fix it?

And some things in windows, when they get corrupt can only be fixed by a reinstall. This might have been one of them :wink:

Thank you again,

It is soothing to know that there is still people like you out there, that care and think about others.

Keep the good work

Michael
