Re: System Reboot

[Rick \Nutcase\ Rogers]

Hi,

Reboot = problem

If not easily resolved, do not wait to invoke your warranty. First, change
the system behavior to more easily identify the problem. Go to the Control
Panel/System/Advanced tab and click the startup and recovery settings.
Uncheck the line to automatically restart on system failure.

This should produce a "Stop" error, or blue screen, with an error message
that may hold some clues as to the root of the problem. Post back with this
information.

Again, as the machine is new, do not hesitate to use your warranty.
