Default Computer keeps restarting

Sherry

Is the computer meant to dual boot?

If not how did you choose whether to boot to Home Edition or
Professional?

Have you tried Last Known Good Configuration?

Gerry,
Thanks a lot for your reply. I have a Dell laptop: 1G Ram (which I
upgraded to 2G about 6 months ago), Win XP Home, Core duo CPU(2.0),
80G Hard.

I had some problems about a month ago with my windows XP home, and
repaired it using my laptop's windows CD. Then I installed a win XP
Pro on another partition of it. After a while I couldn't hibernate my
windows sometimes. It gave me a system error of limited resources. I
didn't care and then after this virus deletion my system keeps
restarting and I can't even go to the safe mode. Because when I press
the F8 button and choose the safe mode option, It goes back to the
windowses list and after I select one of them, it will restart again.

I tried to disable the automatic restart on system failure, but it
didn't help at all because it keeps retarting yet

What can I do now?

Hi Jim

Any error messages to work with?

If you don't see any error messages, right click on My Computer, select
Properties and then the Advanced tab. Click on Settings under Startup and
Recovery and disable 'Automatically restart'. Next time your PC reboots,
you should see a Blue Screen. Could you please post the Stop Code from the
BSOD?

Also, please have a look in the Event Viewer to see if any entries there may
refer to the problem.

Please post a copy of the Stop Error report.

Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should help by
allowing time to write down the STOP code properly. Keep pressing the F8
key during Start-Up and select option - Disable automatic restart on
system failure.

Do not re-enable automatic restart on system failure until you have
resolved the problem. Check for variants of the Stop Error message.
