black screen at startup.

Hello;

I just installed XP sp2 on an old system..
system info
processor = x86 family 15 model 1 stepping 3 1793 Mhz
64 k memory
4meg harddrive..


I can get it boot in safe mode..
but it appears to hang when booting in normal mode.
no conflicts with the device manager
Need some help... any suggestions...

Thanks in advance for your time..

Sammy.

Re: black screen at startup.

A driver issue, perhaps video?
