Windows Vista keeps rebooting (maybe due to an error in an update)

[Guest joseph meservy]

This occurs sometimes with laptops after an update.

 

 

 

You can boot safemode, but after a regular boot up, logging into your

 

account, the computer logs you onto the desktop then reboots the

 

computer after 1-5 seconds. Doing a System Restore to a prior date

 

(achieved by safemode with command prompt: rstrui.exe) doesn't fix it.

 

 

 

SOLUTION:

 

Unplug the laptop

 

Remove the battery from the laptop

 

 

 

Wait 20 seconds, put the battery back in, plug the computer back it.

 

Startup and behold your genius. Computer is back to normal. =) just

 

smile and laugh that it was so easy.

 

 

 

(I ran virus checks, checked the ntbtlog.txt and simply put spent 4

 

hours looking for the error before it dawned on me it could be something

 

totally different).
