Please Help


Well at the boot up it always fails/freezes as soon as the white bar at
bottom of screen is full(does the same everytime) and when it comes to
instalation it hangs once windows setup has copied the setup files and
then you get the meesage "windows is starting setup". And i have
removed everything apart from those listed below to check all
hardware!
