I think he is talking about the boot process hanging on the blue screen that is displayed just AFTER the boot messages and just BEFORE the Desktop is painted...

I've had the same thing happen to me when I swapped video cards and the video drivers weren't correct. The boot process just stops on the blue screen and never gets to the Desktop.

I think it's video card or .kext related, but I don't know what to tell him to fix it other than re-install - NOT loading any video "drivers". Then try to load video .kexts AFTER he gets a sucessful boot...

I wish my son were here - he speaks Spanish, I don't...
