Default XP auto rebooting after blue screen

Hi,

My Laptop suddenly shows blue-screen and each time it's
auto-rebooting. I could not freez the screen at that time
as it tooks so little time to reboot.

Last known good menu/save mode/Repair option from XP
installer CD nothing helps, it is the same blue screen and
auto-rebbot.

What else can be done?
Thanks in advance.

Default XP auto rebooting after blue screen

Your computer is essentially blue screening ... hence the restart...

Windows XP has a feature that is enabled by default, which automatically
reboots the computer when a BSOD ("Blue Screen of Death") is encountered. If
your computer is automatically rebooting, disabling this feature will allow
to see the error message on the BSOD.

To disable this feature, open System Properties by right clicking on My
Computer and selecting Properties. You also can hold down the Windows key on
your keyboard and press Pause/Break or use the System Control Panel to
access this screen.

Once you have System Properties open click on the Advanced tab, then click
on the Startup and Recovery button at the bottom. When the Startup and
Recovery panel opens simply uncheck Automatically Reboot. Then select OK
twice to accept. Now the next time your computer encounters the problem you
will be presented with a screen that will help you track down the issue you
are having.
Having that info, you can then have a pretty good idea what is causing the
crash.


If this doesn't apply to you, then go see
