My computer freezes at the Loading Windows screen (the one that shows the blue bar moving across the screen) and i cant find a way to fix it. I had tried to install a DVD drive before it started doing this and i don't now if i may have altered something mistakenly. Please and thank you.

I tried removing the DVD drive to see if it would work that way, but the computer kept freezing at the same screen as before

You are having a resource conflict, meaning that by installin the DVD drive it is trying to use an IRQ that is reserved for a resource needed by one of the programs that are loaded at the same time as the OS, in this case the OS want to protect itself and shuts off, if you know about CMOS setup, make some changes, if not, uninstall the DVD drive, reboot your PC, if it works, then you need to read the manual about how to properly install the DVD device and what can be done about resource conflicts.
I am not too sure about this but, is sounds as though you should be able to boot into safe mode, this will load only the most critical of components for the OS to run, and should it load, go into you computer properties tab and change the resources that the DVD drive is using, put it on IRQ 3 or 4. This is only a suggestion and the situation could be much more complicated, but try removing the DVD as stated above and if it works you work out the problem from there.

it might want to nevertheless be the onboard pics chip has failed. I doubt that inspite of the actuality that reason it may oftentimes do not have any photograph on the exhibit or may have any distinct type of blocks, strains, streaks or some thing including that. Plus in case you probably did no longer have a password on the computer and it may generally bypass immediately into homestead windows and the start up sound replaced into nevertheless on you should nevertheless listen it. My advice may be disconnect each thing no longer necessary like the optical stress and floppy stress or the different peripherals you've and attempt it. plausible the not straightforward stress has lengthy gone undesirable. possibly the PSU is undesirable?

Well, the most obvious thing to do is to disconnect your DVD and try it again. Always work backwards from the time your computer was working properly to pinpoint your problem.

If your computer is not working properly when it is switched on, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.
