Need tutorial modifying what gets loaded at boot.

I was hoping someone can point me to a tutorial, or give me guidance, on how to change what drivers get loaded. How to determine what drivers may be causing a boot issue.

 

Also, if I disable (for example) the video driver, will a default/generic driver be loaded (like in safe mode)?

 

Thanks for any help.

Alright, here it goes. Note that I am typing ALL of this manually as I have no idea how to copy and paste from the boot screen. And it freezes anyway. I am typing from where the errors seem to be starting:

This is the point at which the system freezes, using the -v -s paramters.

 

The base system works in safe mode. All drives are visible. Vista installed on the internal hard drive.

 

It may be helpful to note I have:

- Acer Aspire 5610 notebook

- Core Duo 2ghz

- 2gb RAM

- 120gig HD

- Intel Pro wireless 3495

- Mobile Intel 945GM

 

Uphuck installed to external USB HD.
