Currently, I'm having difficulties in turning on my computer due to Windows 7 freezing during the "Windows Startup" screen, in which, the logo's animation will cease and the boot will not continue.
In order to bypass this issue, I will normally have to restart my computer several times from this state. When I use the option of using the system repair in order to fix the problem, it appears to do so, but only temporarily. After a few days it reverts to being difficult again.
I'm at a loss as to what could be causing the issue. The only other notes I can give regarding strange PC performance is that Word 2000 crashes during exiting and would not uninstall properly off of my computer. I know now that it is not compatible with Windows 7, unfortunately, and am curious if its strange behavior is related t the startup issue? (A stretch perhaps? But it's all I can think of).
Other possible useful information:
- Computer: Built not bought -- specifications: 64-bit, AMD Phenom IIx4, 8 GB of RAM
- Programs/Hardware that have been also troublesome recently: Word 2000 (crashes upon exit), Wacom tablet (driver issue, was uninstalled and not reinstalled), MovieMagic 2000 (it will not work if I make a second account on the computer and now has randomly deactivated itself)
- If any other information is required, I will be glad to assist!
