black screen after boot screen

hi. i just recently started having this problem. i dual boot xp and vista64, and have the same problem with both os's. after the bios loads, and then the vista (and xp) screens load... you know, the one with the status bar....the screen just goes black. no mouse, icons or anything are on the screen...just black.

after about 5-10 minutes the os finishes loading and everything runs just fine. i just can't figure out what is keeping the os from loading up without the delay.

i didn't install any new programs, and don't have any viruses or trojans. i was playing cod5 in xp when the game locked up, i had to hard restart the computer and that's when the problems started.

plz help!!!! thank you!!
