Grub works when PC is cold started. I can start any item,
except memtest, it says
"Error 28: Selected item cannot fit into memory"
But when I software reboot the PC then and start
Windows 2000, it hangs on logo screen with progress indicator,
if I start Norton Ghosts, it hangs on its blue screen.

If I remove Grub and boot directly to Windows 2000,
software restarts work without any problem.

** Affects: grub (Ubuntu)
