NT 4.0 BSOD

Obvious questions, but as I'm first on, have you selected the VGA option from the initial boot screen?
If that works, your problem lie with the video drivers.
No joy, try the ERD (which you have got, I'm sure)?
If your boot partition is less than2GB and is using FAT16, can you use a DOS boot disk and access the partition? If the answer to the first part is yes, and the second part is no, you have a very sick machine.
Have you tried using the "Last known good" boot option, or does it bsod before this appears?

Has anything been changed since the last successful boot (driver update, new hardware, changed hardware etc)?
I know, all questions, no answers, but there isn't a lot to go on here, at the moment.

Try using the ERD,to boot to the last known good configuration,if this is unsuccessful you may have to reload the OS and during the install process,chose the repair option and this will not destroy the data that you already have on the disk.Reads asthough you are specifying your own swap file and it is using a lot of the memory resources during the boot process.

In addition to Answer #2, once you're up again, right-click My Computer, click Properties.

Click StartUp/Shutdown. Check the box that says Automatically Reboot. It saves tons of grief. I've also found it useful to reboot again, manually, afterthe auto boot following a BSOD.
