I had a problem with my pc for a while and i can't find any solution on the i-net. My problem is that when i restart my pc, it turns off for about 3-5 seconds then delay 2-3 sec and bios starts, then the os. The question is why it shuts down when i restart my pc. I'm not overclocker, and this problem came recently.
View 7 RepliesAll of a sudden, in the last couple of days, I find that I have to go through my Start>Turn off Computer > Restart twice in order for the computer to restart. Unfortunately, I've made a LOT of changes in the past few days (new programs, a system restore, windows registry cleanup, startup configuration changes, etc.) so I have no idea what caused this.

I thought perhaps it had to do with the service pak updates -- although I see that she has computer set for automatic updates. After installing XP Service Pks, XP Professional, IE shuts down and does NOT ALLOW THE UPDATE to proceed. but sends an error report message notifying IE is shutting down.Why is IE shutting down?

my IE6 continually shuts down every minute!!! Im using XP home and have included my hijack log below. When it shuts down, I receive the famous "Windows has encountered a problem and needs to close" message. Also, the failed file proccess in the details section of the error box is never the same! I've already run 3 spy & malware programs so I'm pretty sure Im clean.

View 14 Replies View RelatedSince the last 4-5 days my computer has been shutting down by itself. No warning nothing at all. Just Kaput.I mean windows doesn't show shut down message either.Also I feel it has something to do with my power settings( which are set down to never shut down/hibernate/standby), but I feel that if I leave it idle for some time.. that's when it goes.. if I keep working, it'll stay on.What's more, I think it started after an adobe flash player update( or maybe a windows update, both happened at the same time. Some kinda software distribution service 3.0).. System restore is not working either.I'm running Windows XP home on a compaq 2500 series laptop with P IV 2.4 Gigs processor, 512 mb RAM and 120 GB IDE HDD.

Everything has been working fine now for about 6 months(So I'm 3 mos overdo for a crash) since I had to wipe everthing and restart. Last week I had to tape a Digital Video and then edit it using Windows Movie Maker. The storing was very slow but I finally finished the project. Then I decided to tape one last thing on my Nokia N95 (A phone with a very good Carl Zeiss video recorder in it)..................

I had a bad virus on my computer and I wanted to boot it into safe mode. So I tried and everytime I tried it wouldn't work. I kept getting this message on a blue screen saying my video driver failed to initialize and it shut down automatically but it would boot up normal if I didn't try to go into safe mode.So I read that you could set your computer to automatically boot into safe mode from msconfig so I went in and set it to boot into safe mode automatically every time I powered up. So I turned off my computer and tried to.No matter what I do, no matter what option I select the blue screen with the error about my video driver comes up and it shuts down automatically.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with loading WinXP, basically everytime when it loads, after the WInXP boot logo the monitor goes black and shuts down for about 5 mins, then turns on again and loads as usually. This started happening after I replaced the integrated VIA KM400 vid card with a new Radeon 9250 one.
View 7 Replies View Relatedsometimes it will spontaneously shut itself off. First, the screen will go out. Next, the computer itself will shut down. This always occurs when I am doing something that requires a lot of resources, such as playing a game or watching a video (but only when the video is streamed, it handles DVD and avi files just fine). In retrospect, it's 99% game related.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI accidently installed a wireless card before I installed the software. After I realized this, I shut down the computer and removed the card. When I went to restart it, it starts Windows okay, loads up the toolbar along the bottom and all of my shortcuts, then displays the message : DLL Intuition Failed, Windows is Shutting Down. Now every time I restart it, it goes through the same steps and shuts down.
View 13 Replies View RelatedA while ago, I posted a problem about my computer shutting down and throught I had it fixed after scanning/removing spyware and running disk check. But the last few days it's been happening again. It just shuts down while I'm working on something, either surfing the net, working in psp, working in windows movie maker, checking email, etc. Then I can't turn it back on by pushing the button on the tower. When I look in the back of the tower, the green light for the power isn't on, so I have to push the power cord in and out and jiggle it around a bit to get the green light to turn on and the computer to start up. What could be wrong?
View 12 Replies View RelatedI am runing XP-home addition and on average , 2 to 3 times a week the unit will just shut off to blank screen and the only way to get back is to cold boot the entire. system. It is not software specific, as it has done this dastridly deed running many different programs. The only thing I can maybe relate it to is the fact that the machine will not write a restore log so I can't go back to earlier time and reload. When I try to attempt to restore to specific time I get an error message just informing me that I have performed an illegal function. Is there a chance that these two malfunctions are related? Is there a way to get restore to funtion again from using the XP CD? Whats your analysis of why the computer would just completely and randomly shut itself off? Where would someone start to solve this total irritation? The only thing good to say is that information entered does not appear to be lost as it is all there when I return to the program where it crashed.
