WinRestarts Automatically?

Sep 13, 2005

Posted for Andy, from e-mail message.

Here's my problem: My computer can't boot up properly. It can get to the Windows XP moving blue bar page but it wouldn't boot up to the welcome screen and the OS. Instead my monitor blanks out, but the power signal is still on as displayed on the CPU.

Strangely if i leave my computer on like this, it will restart back to the DOS startup page and a cycle repeats. I tried restarting manually and the windows options menu turns up, telling me to choose various options to boot, including Safe mode, and Last Known Good. I tried going to safe mode, and last known good configuration, but it wouldn't work, it just somehow restarts my computer to the DOS startup.

Log In To OS Automatically

Dec 10, 2005

I cannot log into window XP automatically, everytime that i turn on my pc i have to click on my username (eventhough there's no password) in order to let window continue starting the pc desktop. I've check the pc system and the general information shown that the pc is registered to a user name "user" where my window username is something else "Vicky", could it be the reason? How do you change the information on the system General tab

Win 2K PC Not Locking Automatically

Jan 4, 2008

One of my operatives is using a Windows 2000 SP4 PC, networked, and she's had problems shutting it down (which I've now resolved) but it's not locking when she's away from her desk, leaving it accessible to all. She assures me it used to lock.Before I delete her profile etc. I thought I'd ask on here in case it's a registry setting or something simple that I've missed.

Keeps Shutting Down Automatically

Dec 10, 2004

I'm having this problem where my computer keeps shuting down (automatically) when I log in, right when the applications are loading. The message that popped up varied quite a few times, when of the messages I've seen the most is: "imjpmig.exe-dll initiation failed" and "the application is shutting down".Also, how do you change your BIOS (I'm so used to Win ME) with XP? Which button do you press and when do you press it?

MS Update Keeps Coming Automatically

Aug 3, 2007

I click on the little yellow shield, and it says there's an update waiting. I tell it to Express Install. It does, and says it's finished. Later, I click on the shield again, and the same update is waiting to be installed.

Message displayed during installation:

Initializing installation... done!

Installing Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 1.1 Service Pack 1 (KB928366) (update 1 of 1)...

I've "installed" this update at least three times. And I've already got SP 2 installed, so why does it keep wanting to install something from SP 1? How do I make it stop?

Automatically Logs Off As - Windows Log In.

Jan 2, 2010

It's not my computer, it's my friend's computer. He is unable to get passed the windows login. We have tried all 3 logins including the administrator and guest accounts. On all of them, it automatically logs back out even before getting to the desktop. Also, booting into safe mode produces a BSOD with stop error message. I'd just reformat it but my friend doesn't want to lose all of his data.

Dvd Drive Does Not Load Dvd Automatically

Jun 26, 2009

When i used to load a dvd into the dvd drive it would load auto. for some reason it now does not and so i have to go into the program for the load dvd drive. i was told about two things to do, one of which was a powertoy for windows (tweak ui) and was also told about another one and i have forgotten it. that one i forgot was the actual one which fixed my dvd drive so when a dvd was placed in the drive it loaded automatically. the gentlemen i was dealing with in this regard has finally become fed up with me as this the second time i have now asked for advice and he did indeed fix the problem but it has happened again due to my brother who thinks he knows the computer world inside out but at least he had fun on my laptop.

From time to time, when I click on an icon on the home screen, all the icons behind it will also show as having been selected (and there will be a screen message saying that it will take a long time to load <number> programs, do you want to proceed?).
