> When you say "Everything is OK" presume your talking about the primary
boot, which is all to do with the Motherboard and Cmos. that fact that
nothing else happens is down to one of  two choices. either your Graphics
Card has gone belly up,(unlikely if the initial boot is working)  or you
don`t have enough Ram Memory. Or you`ve changed something like the screen
setting to a resolution not supported by your VDU/Graphics card.
What have you done????.
Is this a sudden problem, or have you changed something. New program(s)
or hardware. What OS are you using Win95 needs Min 16mb.
