Default My computer doesn't want to start up.

My computer started restarting when I was using it. All of sudden it
restarted and it makes a disk check, and when the windows is starting up. It
restarts and does the same thing all over again. If anybody has an idea on
how to make it boot please help. Thank you.

You never see the desktop or Welcome screen/logon prompt?

Which version of Windows? Have you tried a safe boot + restore last known
good configuration?
(http://support.microsoft.com/default...307852&sd=tech -
hit F8 on boot before Windows loads)

(Other possible causes that come to mind: RAM, heat issues (PROC), hard
drive, system files corrupt/virus/malware)
