XP crashes

[Guest]

My computer has worked just until yesterday when it just crashed and restarted. After that the Start up sreen have a lot of line and you can only start XP in safe mode, but the lines is still there. When I reinstalled XP (not after, but when I acctually did it) the computer start to work ok again. But after an hour it crashed again. I´ve now formated the hard drive and re installed XP. But it doesn´t work.
Please can some one help me

It's likely to be a hardware fault or device driver. Check the event
viewer for clues.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

Sorry, but how do I check the event viewer?

Start/run (winkey+r), type "eventvwr.msc" (no quotes), and click "ok".
