I have one customer with an older computer (single-core Intel, 933 MHz, pretty old Asus motherboard) who showed me how his Windows XP would boot and then lock up nastily. No BSODs. I noticed the shiny new Logitech USB keyboard was connected to the PS/2 keyboard port with a USB-to-PS2 adapter but the PS2 connection was actually loose. I tossed the adapter and plugged the keyboard directly into a USB port and the lock ups vanished from that point forward. Poorly connected hardware can cause a lot of problems.
