I regret to say that it was not the new Nvidia drivers that caused my PC to crash upon restart, but unfortunetly it was AVG.

After hours of troubleshooting, I finally decided to try and remove AVG to see if my PC would boot. Once removed, via safe mode, the PC booted. I restarted the PC many times to ensure that it was properly working before reinstalling AVG. Once reinstalled the PC began to crash again upon restart.

I guess AVG does not like HP/XP/AMD computers. Looks like I am going to have to buy Nortan 2006.

As Fyron says, you should visit the forums and ask for help. It's likely a config problem in Windows XP that they can tell you how to fix. Or it might be something particular to HP computers, but even that could still be fixable.

Something really is rotten in Denmark...

I've been using WinXP for a long time with AVG, and never had the slightest issue with it. Even my e-mail scanner works from day one.

I wonder if the issue might be a compatibility issue with Nvidia. Doesn't seem likely, but who knows?

Face it,AT, you apparently pissed off god somehow somewhere....
