XP reboots with changing users

[Guest]

I have been running into this problem occassionally... when we change users,
the whole computer reboots. I assume this is a Windows problem. It also
sometimes occurs when the computer is sleeping and then is "waked up". Any
ideas?

First, do the following, go to Start -> Control Panel -> System.
On the Advanced page select Settings in the "Startup and
Recovery" section.
Uncheck "Automatically Restart" in the System Failure section.

Now when you switch users you should see a blue screen
with a hopefully relevant error message. Also check Event Viewer
(Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Event Viewer) for any
error messages that coincide with this problem. Post back in
a new thread with a description of your problem along
with the error messages.
