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. Richard Gomes Systems Engineer |

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.
