She's Frozen!

[Gloplug]

Hi, when I start up my computer, the boot screen will freeze with this messaged displayed:
_______________________________________
Check System Health: OK, Vcore H700V
CPU ID: 0622
HP.

Checking NVRAM
393216kb OK
Wait...

Any help on resolving this issue?

System Info: HP Pavilion 8160, Windows 98

Thanks,

glo

i think after the ram, your system is trying to detect the ide devices next and is getting hung up on that. maybe it's a bad hard drive.
