Safe Mode Wont Boot
Anyone any ideas on this. I have a PC that will boot normally but hangs when you do things in the ATI Control Center screen. If i try to boot it up in safemode it never works and continually reboots itself after MUP.SYS is displayed

Re: Safe Mode Wont Boot
Could you get hold of another copy of MUP.SYS from another similar copy of Windows or off the CD?
This any use? http://www.computing.net/windowsxp/w...rum/97354.html

i believe VGA comes after MUP (not sure)? and this may be what is causing the issues

Re: Safe Mode Wont Boot
As the original problem seems to be from the ATI Control Center, have you tried reinstalling it ? May just be a currupt file somewhere.
