Windows NT

[lemo]

Hey everyone!

I'm in need of a little help here. A friend of mine is having a problem with Windows NT, it starts up just fine but once the desktop environment shows up -- it freezes. The mouse is responding but never changes to the pointer (it remains as the hour glass cursor) and she isn't able to click/select anything. I'm not too sure on the configuration as I don't have the laptop with me right now, but any ideas would be appreciated.

*I haven't had to chance to do anything yet, I just want to be prepared for when I do work on it*

Extra info:
for some reason the A:\ drive attempts to read once the desktop is loaded.

Thank you!

Hi, how's it going?

Is your floppy cable hooked up properly? Is it configured properly in BIOS? Seems like it should be a simple problem.

BUMP!

Thanks for replying so fast!

However, my main concern is why the system "freezes" or doesnt properly repsond. The mouse moves but nothing else happens. Thanks again!

NT 4 used to do that to me when I was using the wrong version of the Intel 100BaseT NIC drivers.
