Hi,
I have an XP pro machine that I am fairly sure is clear of virus's and
malware. I have made sure that the tick box to cause the computer to
automatically restart after a faliure is not ticked.
When I shut down the computer from Start > Shutdown it shuts down for about
3 or 4 seconds and then restarts again. In those few seconds the power light
and the HD light both flash quickly and constantly and then the computer
restarts. If I press the power button the same thing happens but if I turn
the power off at the plug and then on again it doesn't restart.
I have checked to make sure that the power settings are correct and I have
also disabled any option in the Bios that might bring it out of the off
mode.
The switch seems to be working OK and I am sure the flashing lights must be
a sign.
Any suggestions would be greatly recieved as I am stuck.
Cheers
Lenny
