I have a workstation with an impressively strange problem. If you boot the computer, it will load up to the "select user account screen" and then freeze completely before I can select a user account. No mouse, keyboard, anything working.
However, if you then reboot the computer into safe mode, do NOTHING, and then reboot into regular mode, it loads fine.
The next time you reboot the computer, it will freeze a the login screen again.
So basically to log in normally I must reboot into safe mode first every time, even though I'm not even doing anything in safe mode (I don't even need to log into a profile).
Anybody ever seen anything like this?

I've seen quite a few Windows login issues that were virus/spyware related, but that wouldn't appear to be the case here. Just to be on the safe side though, it probably wouldn't hurt to run a scan.
