my computer restarts without any pattern/reason that i could think off.
This has been going on generally for months.
This is a new computer that was bought in the end of September and it came with this problem when I bought it.
Was bought with windows xp, which was upgraded to vista and then to windows 7.
None of the operating system upgrades helped, but for a few months changing the graphics card did.
A few weeks back the restarts started again and just changing the graphic card this time didn't help. It went as bad as restarting once per minute. PER MINUTE.
The automatic restarts have been turned off.
This computer has been to the repairs more then my old one did in 5 years.
The next thing we will change is the motherboard.
Computer hasn't restarted in a hour so far, but each time I try to call someone on skype it ...lets me be on the call for a few minutes... and then restarts.
It restarts when I try to play world of warcraft, movies and what not. It sounds like the graphic card, but it's not. That's just today.
It started all over again a few weeks ago, then my dear repair guy reinstalled some drivers and it worked for a week. System restores don't work, but it doesn't make me stop trying.
I have ran every possible virus scan I can think of.
Reinstalled every program.
All kinds of system repairs.
I'm down to thinking it's either the power or system updates.
This is a rain of terror and It doesn't have a pattern.
I've recently installed a copy of Win7 on a build. The oddest thing has occurred ever since the installation. From a cold start the PC boots up perfectly and Windows runs smoothly. But if you try to restart or the system does a reboot, the system never comes back..
It just turns black, no bios screen, nothing. I've tried installing and reinstalling the video card driver, but I can't think of anything else.
Windows 7 is rebooting , sometimes once acuople of days or could be once an hour but always when im away. the reboot is clean and i get the normal windows screenhat could be the reason? there are no any usb atachments and comp is quite new.
So I was on the internet when my computer close out of everything, and just shuts down. I my head I was saying, oh is it rebooting, android sdk unpacked fast(its a program that lets me play games and apps on windows). So as the computer restarted it went to a black screen with a blinking course And after 10-15seconds it restarts, just to starts the whole process over again. So I used my phone to get on the internet to check how to fix it, saying "oh man what is wrong, a virus maybe?" I seen some threads on different site with answers saying to to reboot in safemode using f8 and ... so and so. So I did it. nothing happened. So i held it, nothing. ( it just doesn't work) so now im stuck. With a rebooting computer. what to do now? I also heard a bout a error r something. It just reboots it there is a error, I don't know.
I have win 7 Ultimate, and every time I reboot win, lot of devices became unusable with "This device is not present, is not working properly, or does not have all its drivers installed. (Code 24)". I have to do troubleshoot of my notebook (in "Devices and Printers") and then almost all device with error 24 is uninstalled/installed and after that it is working fine. There are some devices
(e.g. Hamachi Network Interface, VMware Virtual Eth Adapter) which are not healed with notebook troubleshoot. Those devices can't be found in "Network Connections", but they are working fine.
Does anybody have a clue? (this is really irritating to reinstall all devices after every reboot)
Last night, I forced shut down my laptop, holding the power button. Now it won't load Windows at all. It turns on, the IBM thing comes on, it's a blank screen with a __ at the top right that's blinking. Then it restarts, and the process starts all over again. I have forced shut down my laptop a lot of times, bit this the first time this ever happened.
I am trying to install Windows 7. I put in the DVD and the installation starts. It expands the windows files then says it needs to reboot. It reboots and goes through the whole process again, says it needs to reboot and it keeps going in circles. I did this three times with the same results. I tried rebooting from the hard drive with the DVD not in the drive and nothing happened.
I have a dell optiplex 360 that is running windows 7. I added a video card geforce 7950 gt, at the time when I added this the computer was running fine for months. Then I upgraded the power supply to a raidmax rx730ss because the video card needed the 6 pin power supply that the old psu didn't have. After I installed the new PSU the computer would start running the post (dell logo screen) finish the load bar, go to a black screen then reboot and start running post again. the computer does this indefinitely as far as I can tell.I installed the old power supply and it did the exact same thing.
I recently downloaded Microsoft Security Essentials and now I think I have some sort of virus. Within minutes of logging onto my computer, a message keeps popping up that there is a critical error and that the computer will restart within one minute. I have tried to do anything I possibly can to get rid of this issue! It does the same thing while booting up in safemode as well. I also tried to restore my computer to a previous date before this occurred, and it still keeps happening. I figured i'd try to restore it to factory settings also, but it does not give me the option while booting up (f11), or on my control panel. I also tried using the TDSSkiller but my computer reboots before the scanning/fixing finishes.
My Asus G73JH laptop [Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit] is about 2.5 years old and the other day it began suddenly freezing and rebooting. What I mean by that is the following: A) When it freezes, there is no warning, no gradual slow down, no anything. The mouse instantly refuses to respond, the computer makes no "thinking" internal noises, nothing. I'm forced to hard reboot. When it reboots itself, it is also instantly. There is no gradual closing of programs, it's just SHABANG. This became an issue suddenly. One day it was fine, the next it was doing this unpredictably.So I decided to go ahead and reformat the thing and re-installed everything via the Asus-provided "AI Recovery Burner" program.Annnd it's still having the same problems. Not only did I experience several errors when trying to do the million and one Windows updates, but it's still freezing and rebooting. Even in safe mode, it freezes. The timing of these things is unpredictable, it could happen 2 minutes after boot-up or, the computer could run fine for hours. So far, the freezing is much more common than the rebooting. Assuming the issue was hardware related, I ran Memtest86 last night for 7 iterations and it turned up zero errors.
I'm working on a NetBoot a acre aspire one and windows 7 starter loads up to the home screen but no icons are shown, nothing it just basically reloads at the windows 7 starter screen.It does have a system restore file from 9-28 but I don't want to use that unleash have to.I ran it in safe mode and the same problem, tried safe mode with networking last good configuration all the same even the dos prompt.All the same.
Everything about the install appears to be going fine, but at the last step when it says completing installation, i have problems.
It says it's going to reboot and then does. When it's starting back up, is says setup is updating the registry. Then it says setup is starting services. It restarts again and when it gets to the same spot, out of nowhere the PC reboots and gets to the same point before endless rebooting.
I tried installing both 32 and 64 bit versions but the same problem with both of them. The 32 bit version I was able to get installed just fine on 2 old XP computers my friend had, so I know the disc itself is good.
I've tried just about everything I can think of but can't get past this issue. And every attempt is a big deal because I have to then restore my PC back to the original factory condition and it takes time. I don't have another PC of my own to troubleshoot with either. I've tried raising the RAM to 4GB but that had no effect. I'm sorta a beginner so any help is greatly appreciated.
I have been trying to clean install Windows 7 ultimate (DVD is fine, have installed on my friend's laptop successfully) since last week, but with no luck. Everything is fine during the installation; I can see the welcome screen, and then shut down. After my pc restart, passes the self-testing, it would reboot right before windows logo shows up. It turns into rebooting loop stopped every time before windows logo shows up. Also tried with Sapphire HD 3650 512MB (Dual DVI) graphic card, the results were the same.

I reinstalled Windows 7 from the recovery partition and everything seemed to went fine but upon rebooting, it does a "system setup" and when it finishes the desktop appears with the message like "Computer needs to reboot to finish driver installation. Do not touch mouse or touchpad." It then reboots on its own.
my netbook will not load windows since an avg update. I am trying to reboot from a USB stick. When I f2 and choose usb hdd then save the computer just asks me to remove the device and press any key before it will go any further.
for the past few days my windows 7 Pro system has been freezing and rebooting at random.I use an unRAID NAS and because i has having a problem with windows leaving NAS files open they reccommended that i make the following registry changes:
Set HKLMSYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSession ManagerMemory ManagementLargeSystemCache to 1 Set HKLMSYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesLanmanServerParametersSize to 3 http://alan.lamielle.net/2009/09/0 [...] error-2017
i don't know if this is what is causing the rebooting issue or not. I exported a backup of the registry before i made the changes. once i discovered the problems i tried ti import the registry backup file to restore the original settings and it started to process and then gave me an error saying that it couldn't import the .reg file.so i went in and manually changed the values back but my PC is still rebooting.
I have a Dell studio laptop that keeps rebooting. I turn it on an it gets to the Dell logo and then reboots. You can select the F2 setup option or the F12 Boot options but this does nothing. If I select F12 then try to select diagnostics it reboots, whatever option it just reboots. I tried to start it in safe mode by pressing delete this did nothing just re-booted and also pressing F8 again nothing. I tried to boot the Dell windows CD that cme with the laptop but nothing it sounds like its trying to start but reboots before anything happens.
my computer says unexpected shutdown after rebooting...the problem occurs only after the opening interval of 3-4 hrs otherwise once OS runs there is no problem in restart or any other system operation.
After my computer has been running for some time (maybe days), it gets really slow. I found a great memory manager that cleans the memory. I was wondering if there was a way to clean the Page File without rebooting. BTW, I use Process Explorer so I know there is nothing running that shouldn't be hogging resources.
i had some dodgy memory, but running memtest (which i needed too do to RMA) really buggered up my system, as i was getting instant BSOD just trying to get into memtest. Anyway manged it and duff memory sent off, i insert my working memory and get loads of windows errors and issues. Cut my losses and format and start a fresh. New Build...So everything is installed and working, however i seem to get some input lag and stutter when windows loads, but apart from that it seemed ok for the entire day.When i tried to play Battlefield3 i would get in to the game between 1 and 5mins my gcard fans go mental and the pc shuts down.temps are fine, but wondering if i have somehow borked my gcard or mobo using the dodgy memory?At a loss knowing what is at fault.all hardware has been working fine for about 8 weeks before i added the new duff memory. memtest says current memory is fine and i was able to stress test using prime for 45mins (all overclocks removed)

I noticed that I was running in single channel config, so I decided to move my ram around to run in dual channel. On reboot it says its running in dual channel, but my system reboots continuosly after the loading screen. Works perfectly fine if I switch it back to single.
Do I need to edit something in BIOS to get this to work or am I better off just sticking to single channel?
I have been having this issue where on windows 7 64bit every time I hit shutdown my laptop shuts down and then after 5 seconds it will restart again. I have reset laptop back to factory settings, I have downloaded latest bios update and installed and no luck at all.
i formatted yesterday my pc, today i installed the drivers then i activated windows and it needed to close the pc to be saved.but when i booted my pc it keeps rebooting and makes a strange sound.hardware: mobo b75m-d3h gigabyte,i3 3220 win 7 32 bit home premium
I would like to connect my 2.5" external USB hard drive permanently to store my files. However, it seems like my USB hard disk doesn't show up every time I reboot my windows 7. I will need to unplug the usb and then replug it back it for it to be detected, which is a bit of a hassle.
Is there a way to stay connected to a computer via remote desktop while it reboots, or at least automatically reconnect? I ask because I need to take some screen captures of the BIOS settings which I can only get into on bootup. I can't use my screen capture application while in the BIOS, or at any point during bootup, but I can from another computer that's remotely connected to it - that is, if it could BE connected while at this stage in the bootup.
I have an Acer aspire laptop its about 3 months new and recently it hs been slow and freezing and yesterday I got 2 plus screens with words on them and this morning it kept messing up and so I cicked the restart button and now it will get to were it boots and it says Acer on the screen with an F2 option and then reboots to it again in a loop what do I do!?
Okay so i have this machine, acer m3100, that originally had windows vista. I tried to do a clean install of windows 7, with an original windows 7 installation cd.Everything would go okay until right after the computer restarts and goes to the part of COMPLETING INSTALLATION. At that moment my screen suddenly flashes with the blue screen of death. i wasnt able to right the error that shows up though. Then the computer restarts and goes to setup devices and right after that an error message appears saying, windows did not complete installation, due to an unexpected restart, restart the computer and restart the installation. If i click okay it will go into an endless loop. Restarting one time after another. So i thought i would install windows vista again. Try to make things the way they were before, but i get the same error. i'm only able to install xp. With XP everything works fine. I do want to be able to install windows 7 though.
