Can't Log On Part 2 - XP Installation Problem (Sleep mode?!)
Well, I recently decided to boot from my CD after an 'Endless Boot Error'. Once I'd loaded all the files and restarted I came across the GUI Installation. When I insert the CD, it starts the installation and says 39 minutes remaining
Once it's installed the 'Devices' and is at 34 minutes remaining, the screen goes black and my monitor says 'Going into Sleep Mode' (or something similar). The computer is still running and I've tried pressing EVERY key, Ctrl+Alt+Del and switching the monitor on and off. The computer is still running (you can hear it) but the screen is blank and it doesn't do anything.
When I restarted, I tried clicking the mouse permanently (to stop Sleep mode maybe?) and it didn't work. Once it enters sleep mode I have to restart and then the installation starts again.
Please Help!!!
