Serial Key Devices

DanSK
If anyone can help with this rather esoteric question many kudos as even the manufacturers of some of these serial key devices can't answer this. But in w2k in control panel > accessability options there are configurations under the General tab to enable serial key devices.

Windows XP won't boot

ECO
The boot process goes as far as just after the screen with the XP logo and the horizontal loading bar, then the screen goes black. At this point the computer hangs. It's not an issue of corrupt video drivers cuz i uninstalled them and tried to boot in VGA mode, and that didn't change a thing.
