Windows shut down problem
This just started happening a few days ago. Can turn on PC running windows
xp home and it will run for 10 to 15 minutes and then shut down and reboot. Thought it might be a heat issue, but I can boot into safe mode and it will run forever. I have tried different power supply, different hard drive and different memory but issue is the same. This is an emachine with integrated everything. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks -- kah |

Right-click My Computer, and choose Properties. On the Advanced tab, click Settings under Startup and Recovery. Under System failure, uncheck the box "Automatically restart. Now when the problem occurs again, instead of restarting, you will get the blue screen with diagnostic information. Post back with those details for more help. -- Ken Blake - Microsoft MVP Windows: Shell/User Please reply to the newsgroup |
