Under the debugger with XP I hang at the same point but the progress bar
keeps going. I've only tested it twice though.

Without the debugger, I have seen under XP:
. Appears to boot okay but then explorer crashes and progressively
everything else does too.
. BSoD while the splash screen + progress bar is loading
. Hang at the splash screen with the progress bar still moving

So I can't reproduce your situation but can definitely see that there is
a problem with XP. 2003 works perfectly though... I'll see what I can
do.

James
