About three months ago I was asked by my boss to build him a new office computer. Knowing that he was going to be using it for lite office work, i put together a solid office rig.
2 duo E4400
Asus P5K-VM
1 Gig of OCZ Value (1 stick)
and a Seagate 320G Barracuda drive.
using on-board video
running on XP
But 4 days ago my boss went to restart his PC after it was "running slow? and it failed to boot. Reaching the windows boot up screen with the scrolling marker, staying on that screen for 12-15 seconds and then restarts to the MB start up screen only to repeat the boot process. And it will continue to do this over and over.
Looking in the BIOS everything is detected and running normally. I have moved the ram stick to all the memory slots thinking that may make a difference, I was wrong.
I had to replace the crap power supply that came with the case after it was hissing and started to smell, but I really don't think that has anything to do with the problem I am having now.
Anyhow, if anyone can think of why I pc may restart itself when it gets to the windows loading screen, please let me know.
Thanks
