When we had that problem, I had to change the motherboard and processor.
Actually, I had to change the motherboard, the old processor wouldn't fit in
the new motherboards we purchased. I was able to reuse the memory.
Unless you have set up the operating system to reboot on errors, this problem
is caused by either a motherboard, processor or memory. ( In my limited
experience of 8 years ).
Hope this helps.

Subject: [windows2000] Boots just to reboot automatically
Win XP Home computers (2)
Computer boots and starts Win XP Home...see the little graphic bar goes across
the screen (normal)..then when normally the login prompt is presented (or when
login prompt is not used - auto login in case and suppose to bring up the
desktop), the computer goes into a hard reboot automatically.
I can go into the BIOS setup - all looks normal
I try to boot from Norton CD, it boots but then locks up computer after I
select boot to emergency repair.
I try to boot from Win2000Pro CD, it boots then locks up right before the
message that setup is inspecting your computer.
I try to boot from a DOS floppy created at a Win98 machine. Get the Window 98
Boot disk message then it locks up.
I unplug all the hard drives (2), try a clean made Win98 dos boot disk. Same as
above.
I unplug all the hard drives (2), try to boot. Get message stating no boot disk
found.
Anybody got any clues?
Apparently, I can not even access the hard drive to reformat. But I need to
save the files there. I might be able to put the hard disk into another working
computer as a second or third hard drive. The format or look at the contents.
However, I do not want to infect a working system.
Yes, I have pulled the 2 systems from the network.
Thanks for an replies.
