Reply With Quoteopen up your computer and take out all the memory chips.
i had problems like this and it was a faulty memory chip.
try each memory chip seperately.
Im having a problem with windows xp where it wont boot up.. i get a blue screen and then the machine just restarts itself.. i did write down the error numbers it gives but i have left them at home.. anyway i tried a repair installation by booting from the cd but i only get as far as loading the drivers for setup and then the machine restarts itself.. i can access the bios but have no idea on how i am going to reapiar or even reinstall windows.. can you boot into dos from startup??
Was thinking i could maybe format the drive that way.. also the machine wont load in safe mode either.. just restarts
Any help is extermly appreciated!!!!

change the boot to cd rom and put in the xp disc and then click the repaire function.

Its strange as it worked one day.. tuned it on the next and it wont boot
Tried that mate but it starts to load the files windows needs for repair and then i get the blue screen with error message and then the machine restarts
possibly corrupted.. and needs a repair / new install
Have you read what's been said FFS.
If it's BSOD'ing when it's repairing i would say it's the RAM tbh.
try booting into safe mode
i would say it's the RAMit's allways the bloody RAM
faulty hard drive when it happened to me. replaced it and it worked fine again.
