My computer when turned on, shows as usually the first screen with the BIOS
data and withthe option to press Delete to go into BIOS settings. Then as
normally it shoew the second screen about the disks and PCI devices listing
and hangs there (I took a picture of that screem and placed here:
www.pifpaf.front.ru/screenshot.htm

I rebooted to machine several times - the same, and when I was about to drop
the hope affter 10 or 15 attempts, it booted normally.
What might be the problem and how do I fix it so that it will not hang
again?

I guess this might be not related toWindows, if this is the case, which NG
should I go please?

Most likely a hardware problem.
Weak or failing Power Supply.
-or-
failing Motherboard.

Inspect the motherboard for swollen or leaking capacitors. Swollen caps will
have a rounded top ... leaking caps will have brown sludge on top or atg the
base.

Thank you.
Visually I cannot detect swollen or leaking capacitors.
How do I check if the Power Supply is weak or failing?

Try running a disk diagnostic on the boot drive.

Download and run
http://support.wdc.com/download/dlg/DlgDiagv504c.exe
It should create a bootable floppy you can use on the computer
with the problem.
