HP OmniBook XE3

[JPadie]

I have a hp omnibook xe3 that has windows 2000 installed when i initially boot the computer it shows the first hp boot screen then the next screen it displays approx 92 random ascii characters and doesn't finishish booting if i hit return it just displays all the same characters right below the first one and so on. when it gets to that point i can soft boot it and it boots properly anyone have any ideas why its doing that? and for the record i know its an outdated computer but i use it for doing some dos based stuff that i like doing that windows 7 cant do without programs like dosbox thank you
