Windows XP Pro & Freezing

[Creedman]

Hey guyz....

I got an issue... and for the life of me, can't figure out what the problem is. I do a fresh install of Win XP Pro, reformat it and everything... it works, and when I install anything hardware, such as my video driver, windows will lock up on next reboot at the splash screen. No logs, no nothing. Ya can get into it using safe mode, but even if ya uninstall the driver/device, it still won't boot normally. It even does it if I install my webcam, which is odd. Didn't start doin it til a few days ago, which is why I think it's a hardware problem. Never had a prob. installin before, and now, boom. Any ideas? No bios settings have been changed, or "NEW" hardware added. And it's from a clean install, so it's CANT be a software issue.

Puzzled....
