Computers...gotta love 'em, gotta hate 'em

Post by Petrapraise » Thu Sep 09, 2004 4:03 pm

One of my computers is just giving me all kinds of grief. After it boots into windows, it reboots. I've tried restoring to a known good point, but nothing helps. I decided to restore it today, (and lose some data :cry: ).
After about 17 tries it seems like it might finally work.

Lucky, for me I have other computers I can still post at the zone with. :)

Did you do a virus check on the machine..The booting and rebooting by itself at windows start. Is something that the Blaster virus makes computers do..

reboots

I agree... it might be a virus problem. Also make sure your OS is activated... i think some versions of Windows do that after the trial period is over.
