I've tried everything and have even looked at the thread on this site "Fresh installation of XP hangs after MUP.SYS" but nothing.

I'm running Memtest86+ v4.00 but no luck (everything looks good)

It freezes at windows boot screen, not even 1 green block shows up in the loader.

I go into safemode and it stops at MUP.SYS, it's probably not MUP.SYS that is the problem but it's probably the next file that is trying to load or something.

The end-user has not installed anything at all that could be problematic. I have pulled the HDD out and put it into another pc and have checked it, nothing suspicious at all. It's just as clean as when I first cleaned it up and secured it.

Someone / anyone please help! :)

Thank you!
