My computer will load up normally the way until it reaches the screen with
the green bar and black screen. The green bar will cycle through about two
to three times, but then it stops moving. It moves forward just a little bit
every 5 minutes though, so if I leave it like that for about 40 minutes then
Vista will be able to boot to my desktop. And when I try to restart my
computer, it just stays at the 'Shutting Down" screen forever. The longest
I've let the shutting down screen just stay there was 20 minutes. I had to
cut the power. Anything that has to do with networking seems to make my
computer freeze up. I can start up in Safe Mode but not Safe Mode with
Networking. And when I waited the 40 minutes start my comp up, the Vista
said the the "Network cable is unplugged", but it wasn't. When I disabled
the network adapter, my computer froze again.My computer will load up

Hi Bargar,

When you say anything with Networking seems to be your problem, how do you
have this setup? Are you using DSL and if so what Router if any and what
Modem are you using? Did you install any software that may have come with
your modem and who is your Internet provider?

I use a Comcast cable. I'm connected to a CableModem, no wireless stuff. I
have never installed anything from comcast, and it's been fine for the past
year. I really think it's something to do with my network adapter now.
Because before it would freeze up on start up, whenever I would lose
connection to the internet because the modem crashed, Mozilla Firefox would
freeze up until I had internet again. And i just tried to install the driver
for my network adapter, my comp froze entirely, i couldn't even move the
mouse pointer around, or do ctrl alt del

Hi Bargar,

Well Network cards are cheap enough these days, so I grab a new one and try
it out. Just be sure to uninstall the old one first and if it's built in be
sure and disable it through the BIOS and or Device Manager. If this don't
solve your problem then I'd request Comcast to send me a new Modem.With all
the storms we have had across the states here lately damage could have been
done without your knowing it.
