Re: blue screen with no words
Try booting to the Windows Advanced Options Menu again (F8 during boot) only this time, pick Enable VGA Mode. This option starts Windows in 640 x 480 mode by using the current video driver (not Vga.sys). This mode is useful if the display is configured for a setting that the monitor cannot display.
Note: Safe mode and Safe mode with Networking load the Vga.sys driver instead, so if it works in Safe Mode but not when you select VGA Mode, then try Last Known Good Configuration: This option starts Windows by using the previous good configuration.
If still no good, boot to Safe Mode, open Device Manager (Start / Run type devmgmt.msc and press Enter) then expand Display Adapters, then right click and uninstall it. Reboot and XP will reinstall the device and driver which may clear up the problem.
