When I boot my laptop and the Windows XP screen with the green loading bar is displayed it is fine. When the screen switches to the next screen it turns white. I can hear the windows theme audio and hear my taskbar icons popping up but the screen is white. I close the lid and it works and other times I have to do a cold boot and sometimes that works and other times it doesn't. Eventually it works but just wanted to know if anyone had any ideas. Someone said it was the hard drive, replaced that, someone said it was not enough ram, but 1GB in it still no luck. The people at HP said the samething. Thanks for looking.
