Sounds like your boot files are corrupt or some system files are corrupt. You can try clicking Start/All Programs/Accessories and look for the CMD (command) Prompt. If you don't see it you can click the RUN and in the box type cmd and press enter. A black window should appear allowing you to type in commands. Type the following command: sfc /scannow (which is the system file checker and let it run). When it finishes, try rebooting. If you still have the problem type the following command: chkdsk /r
The Check Disk command might tell you that volumes are locked or that it will run the next time you restart your computer. In either event it's safe to click yes or ok to let it run. It will run for an hour or more and you will notice the percentage of completion going from high to low but that is ok. Just be patient and let it run until it finishes then reboot.

The ribbon will only print red ink
While in the D position or PD position, N Count
is OFF. In the N Count N position every
Plus, Minus, Equals Plus, Equals Minus,
Memory Plus or Memory Minus key depression
is counted. The Accumulator and its N Count
or the GT N Count can be printed by
depression of the Subtotal or Total key. When
either Memory Subtotal or Memory Total is
depressed, Memory N Count will print. N Count
is always printed in red, left justified. If the
Equals key is depressed immediately after the
Subtotal Total, Memory Subtotal, or Memory
Total the average of the entries is printed.
When the N Count prints on the 7150, an audit
symbol will print to the left of the N Count.
The audit NA will identify the Accumulator
register N Count, NG will identify the GT
register N Count and NM will identify the
Memory N Count.

FREQUENTLY HANGING
There are a lot of things that can be a factor for this.

Do you perform maintenance such as defraging drive, cleaning registry etc.
Do you use anti-virus, do you have the minimum requirement for the anti-virus and do you update and scan your pc often.
Do you get memory error messages......a faulty hard drive could also be a great problem

Solutions
  1. Get a software like "tuneup utilities" and perform a full pc maintenance.
  2. Make sure that you are safe from virus. Computer anti-virus are never 100% safe and the best practice is to be proactive (I term that as the best anti-virus).
  3. You need to check for hardware errors such as memory and hard drive errors. This are the most important when it comes to hanging Pc........and unless i do forget.
  4. A bad power supply and faulty motherboard can also be counted on, Though i doublt that can be your problem. Just perform step 1-3. I am sure you should be good to go. Good Luck

Hp LJ P3005DN hangs during boot. Sometimes during
It would not surprice me if you have a defective formatter board. This is a very commen problem with this machine. Officialy you have to replace the formatterboard but there is also an other way to fix it. Put the formatterboard in to a preheated oven 190 degrees Celcius (350 fahrenheit) for 8 minutes. 8 out of 10 times it works fine fine and the machine is up and running. If this does not work you still can replace the formatterboard.

Abit kv7 hangs at memory speed
Go into the bios and use the "set bios to default" option
There is another that is used for more speed orientated setting but at this point fo not use it.

Also check the memory settings them selves and set them for auto where possible

If you mean that it hangs when counting the memory then try the ESC key as it is booting to get past the memory check and then use DEL to get into bios

New system hangs at p.o.s.t
I would first clear the cmos. Then try to get back into the bios and check the ram voltage setting. My Asrock board AOD790GX128M had me use the #3,4 memory slots, the #1,2 gave me the bsod. You may want to try that also. I hope this helps you.

I just got this machine and it hangs on the POST (with video) about 1/4 of the way. This is before the F2 or F10 message comes up. Two days ago, I took the CMOS battery out and put it back in and it did...
POST errors can be difficult to diagnose.

If you have a speaker attached, listen for a sequence of short and long beeps, and pauses between. Record the sequence, this is a code that tells what the POST diagnostic is.

Other start up BIOS keys are F2, F6, F8, F10 and F12; when I don't know which one it is, I just hit all of them.
Whether it's stated or not, you can usually hit these keys during the memory count, (The second Self Test after video)

If the Memory Count dosn't finish and the BIOS open, then perhaps a dammaged memory chip is the cause. Try Rearranging the chips, or removing all but one of them and try the boot sequence.

This may not be a solution but further info can be gained by trying these.

Elitegroup P4M800 motherboard boot-up problem
i am assuming you read my other post, so did you notice in the same menu it recognises the hard disk, does the system count all of the memory, if so the memory is ok, remember it will count it in kilobytes so don't look for 1024mb. You know it's not the graphics, although you should be able to get into the bios to check the settings because the post to check drives appear and the proceedure for getting into the bios is before this power on self test.
