What do you mean by "the screen loses signal?" Does it freeze? If it does,
then for how long? Do you wait for a few minutes for it to come back or you
push the power button to turn the machine off?

Or perhaps you have another scenario: your screen goes black after the logo
appears for a few seconds? Please, describe the events in detail.

There is a small chance that you are too impatient and turn the machine off
prematurely since Vista needs some time to crunch previously installed
updates. This will not continue forever. After a few such boots the system
will boot much faster. Just be patient for a while.

I have the same thing, safe mode and even command line mode won't help.
I have found many recent such postings on google, it could be a virus.
