This new computer is awesome, but, I am still having boot probs. The current situation is:
Using latest drivers (I think).
Haven't RMA'ed anything---have pretty much just been playing around with the boot process, watching how it responds, which has yielded the following:
1) When the machine freezes during the Windows Logo screen, I have found that, if I shut down, reboot and accept a normal Windows boot instead of booting to Safe Mode when the boot options screen appears (the one after an abnormal shutdown), the machine will boot on anywhere from the first retry to the fourth. That is, if I just keep trying to boot to normal mode, I eventually get beyond the frozen state and have a normal boot with all systems GO!
2) If, during the above re-boot steps, I press the reset switch, the computer reboots, and, after the opportunity to go into the BIOS, it produces a blank (black) screen with a white cursor flashing in the upper left corner. This is something I've often seen over the years, but, never knew the cause of. What the heck good is a reset switch if it doesn't work?
