Try booting windows to Safe Mode. If it does load, then yes I would
suspect a driver issue.

Hi
Would an incorrect driver stop Windows from booting and why would Ubuntu have
no problems with it?
I will go looking for a driver, but I am unsure it is a driver problem.

You appear to have the incorrect driver... using the driver for the 600, when
the Panasonic needs another, or different firmware... There are likely
different drivers and firmware somewhere on the Lenovo site...
Or at least remove the installation for the old CD drive.

Hi
I replaced the CD drive in my ThinkPad 600 for a DVD-ROM/CDRW combo drive.
I cant remember exactly what version it is, but it is a Panasonic UJ something.
I dual boot XP and Ubuntu 10.04. With the drive installed XP will not boot. It
gets to the black screen with XP with the little blue bar going across and
freezes.
At first I thought the drive was faulty. But when I booted into Ubuntu it
booted fine and I popped a DVD video in and it opened the disc and showed the
disc name, so it seems ok.
Any ideas?
