Hi

Hi Guys, I've had some serious bad luck luck and in absolute frustration I'm
turning to you guys and girls for help!

Problem:

Vista loads up and just before the logo screen (when you can hear the vista
jingle) the screen blacks out. In fact i'm pretty sure my monitor simply
loses signal as I can still hear the sound so it seems like Vista continues
to load.

History

Vista has been working fine on this machine till then. I had this problem
previously and I reinstalled Vista. I really don't want to go through that
again, so any help would be much appreciated.

Here is the spec for my machine:

Intel core 2 quad
4 Gig Ram
2 x NVIDIA GT9600 SLI

Someone suggested that his might be a power problem but it isn't. I've used
PSU calcs to work out my power consumption and i'm ok, also the PC loads up
fine in safe mode.

I've looked around and tried a whole number of things but no luck. I'm
willing to try anything except for a reinstall.
