I have just got my computer up & running after taking your advice. I did as
you said & unabled it from restarting & what happened was it would then not
start at all, it just went from being able to go into safe mode with
networking to the initial problem of restaring over & over. My only option
was to reset it back to factory settings! I have just got all my back ups &
wanted programmes back on it in between doing christmas. Answering previous
question to me, No there is no over heating or smell & all hardwear is
working correctly.
Sorry Gerry I don't understand the last posting that you wrote, please
explain, & I will just add that I did wonder if "disabling restart
automatically in the event of problem " would give that out come but I also
read in a book that it was the first thing to try so I went ahead, so u
weren't alone giving that advice, just a shame what transpired.
Cheers congoes girl
