    Hey,

    Ok well my computer is rebooting and when the windows 2k loading bar is up it reachs the end and the whole system reboots again. It can do this about 4 times in a row until it actually brings me through to the login screen (Ctrl + alt +Delete).

    Its really getting annoying! I've run disk checks and nothing, virus checks nothing! I'm at a total loss. Sound familiar to anyone ?

    Installed any new hardware of late?
    Overclocked in any way?
    Basically done anything different to your PC since it started?

    Start in Step by Step Confirmation and see what driver, device is being loaded when it buggers up.

    Should find the probelm, then can help fix it :)

    That happens to me when my computer is overclocked too much. If you have overclocked at all, reduce it to stock values and test it.

    Also do step-by-step confirmation as mentioned already.
