Bob, you need to pull everything out of your computer but the
graphics card and one memory chip. Then start adding things back in,
one at a time. You say you got in windows without the CD. That's
fine, just uninstall them and boot up your system without them - A
COUPLE OF TIMES. Let windows do its thing and when you install them
and reboot it will automatically install them. reboot a couple of
times after each change and don't change but one thing at a time.
