Pc Restarts

i recently installed office xp on my system...the 404,602 kb version......no service pack installed just basic stuff.....now every time i start up normally...my system reboots.....just out of the blue....i can be connected to the net....it reboots....i'm not connected...it still reboots...no particular timing...i could also be playing a game it reboots.......i checked to see how much RAM i had free....i had between 40-45 MB free...i normally had 70-80 MB free on start up so i checked for viruses...none...with norton and trojan remover...went through the registry from top to bottom...stilll nothing.....i uninstalled office xp ...it still happens...what do i do????

[DalamarDarklord]

ouch, best bet might be to back everything up, reformat, and reinstall...

[Los]

NOOO
DONT DO THAT

RIGHT CLICK MY COMPUTER AND CLICK ON PROPERTIES
THEN GO TO START UP AND RECOVERY AND UNCHECK AUTO REBOOT

ITS THAT SIMPLE THAT SHOULD FIX IT

[DalamarDarklord]

:blink: Ahh woopz.. that's right, forgot that XP did that, ya, listen to Los

[ragzinc]

thanks...i'm so ashamed that i didn't think of that.......

[Los]

yeah lost of people dont know about that option/feature....right when you buy your PC you should DISABLE IT!!!

[Dombler]

You need at least 264 mb of ram to run XP.

Ragzinc... post what the error code is. I'm just curious because i recently had a similar problem, along with a couple of my friends and my parents. I think it might be klez related but have done a search for klez files using symantecs klez removal program. I think that there's a new strain of the virus out right now.

what is auto reboot supposed to do exactly?
what purpose does it serve?
mine is turned on and this never happenned.
it&#39;s only supposed to do it on a system crash so if it&#39;s rebooting then something is still wrong <_<

[nizers]

it protects your harddrive from becoming totally f**ked up.

[ragzinc]

Nope, I have a Intel Pentium 4 2.0GHz with 256MB RAM. I have the legitimate version of XP Home and it runs great&#33;

dang.. that&#39;s so close to what my error code was. This is it...

PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

I&#39;ve tried everything on his computer. System Restore fixed my problem... but it won&#39;t take on his comp. You might try doing if a sys restore if you haven&#39;t already. I tried disabling the BIOS memory shadowing but i didn&#39;t really find an option that would do it, just an option to disable Quck Boot or something like that, which i&#39;m assuming is close to the same thing. Either way, it still didn&#39;t work.. i might have to resort to doing an XP repair using the install discs. If anybody else has some advice, please let me know before i wipe the hole harddrive.

[netblade83]

go talk to MS tech support.. i had a problem awhile back with my computer doing this... it was probably for a different reason than yours, but they were able to take that error, and figure out what could be causing it

[nizers]

good advice.. i just hate talking to those guys.. they act like your a complete idiot.

"In the run box type, M as in Mary, S as in Sam, C as in cat..." "i&#39;m like, yea msconfig... i&#39;m already there" :lol: :D :lol: :D

[sweetboy]

if you had use windows updates
that might be the problem

[Evil Gemini]

Moral of this thread is dont auto update. I never ever auto update and my pc has never crashed or had any errors. My m8 auto updates all the time and he has probs all the time.

[alan36uk]

I have the same problem ragzinc but only whilst playing
games.
Xp pro
512 ram
1.4 Athlon.

I have been informed by some Technical folk
that the error is due to the power supply.
Not enough watts ?
Sounds daft I know but I have done alot of research
and seems we are not alone with this problem.

Complete wipe may be your only choice...

I used to get a error that looked like this:


F:WINWORD.EXE-Application Error

The instruction at "ox6061fdc3" refrenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory
could not be "read".

Click OK to terminate the program
Click CANCEL to de bug the problem

I tried everything, but I could not fix it.

I moved everything of any value to my d: drive and completely erased c: .

It worked. I re installed windows, and have never seen the error since.

Good luck&#33; :)

[ragzinc]

thanks guys for the advice.....going to talk ms technical support now <_< <_< <_< <_< ...i guess i&#39;ll have to resort to a clean install if i get no help....thanks again

[mrcall1969]

I had a similar problem when I upgraded from 98 to XP, disabling the auto-reboot is a good idea only because it lets you see what the actual error message is straight away.

I contacted MS tech help and they were about as useful as an ejector seat in a helicopter. The only way I cured the problem was to format and do a clean install, never had the problem since.
