Hi,
My Dads computer stopped working today; it displays the Welcome screen for
a moment, but then before a user can be picked, it reboots. The same thing
also happens when using safe mode, and using the last-known-good-profile
option didn't help either. An attempt to repair Windows was also made -
booted from the disk, pressed 'R', choose c:\windows (hit enter), and right
at that point, the computer reboots too!
My Dad says that before the crash, he moved ~2GB of data from the D:
drive, that was full, to C:, went away for an hour or two, came back and
attempted to copy pictures off a camera, but for some reason, they wouldn't
copy, so he rebooted. Then the problem started.
Anyone any idea - I haven't been able to find anything on newsgroups that
are similar to this..
I'm going to try reinstalling Windows tomorrow if no-one has a better
solution.
Thank you,
Kind regards,
Eliott
