When I turn on my mac, I hold alt, then select Windows. It all runs smoothly until it shows the mouse just before the login screen, it stays there for about 5 seconds, then the display shuts off, but the computer itself remains on (I know this because to turn it off I have to hold down the power button).

On the next start up I reboot in safe mode, and everything works fine.

I tried re-downloading the drivers on to a DVD to re-install them, but the windows installer doesn't work in safe mode, and I can't see if anythings happening on normal.

I've had the partition for a while now and everything has worked until now. I use the partition frequently so the loss of it is extremely frustrating, any help would be appreciated :)

I have the MacBook that apple don't make anymore (don't know exact spec but i'm hoping thats enough)
