Operating Systems Solaris Solaris 10 freezes up while logging in.....!!!! Post 302137207 by porter on Sunday 23rd of September 2007 06:27:29 PM

How about diving into the BIOS settings,

you could

(a) write down all the current settings

(b) set defaults

(c) save

(d) reboot

then if that doesn't work start disabling things like "plug & play" etc until the machine starts up, then if things aren't detected or working back track on things you disabled.

I had to remove an ISA sound board for Solaris 10 to work on my PC.
