    random reboot loop

    ok this follows on from my previous thread.

    Thought I'd sorted it but yet again I am thwarted! :rolleyes:

    Spent all aft reinstalling windows and setting up my comp again for about the 3rd time in 2 days now. :fuming:

    So I thought it was the windows updates so I dloaded all apart from the most recent. Rebooted & installed. All good no probs, so i figure ive cracked it....

    Spend another hour or so installing apps i use, customising it all how i like it. numerous reboots after installations still no probs.

    Watch a video in media player.... installed cuteftp which i hadnt done previously so this cant be the prob. rebooted again to complete installation, windows loads up, get the gay little jingle and bang! :eek:

    Reboots like someone has just turned off the power! No error messages, no blue screens, just power off and on again. Now its stuck in a loop again like this!! :spangled: Now this seems pretty random to me and I've now come to conclusion it must be a hardware prob??

    The systems not oveloaded power wise.

    I cant boot up in safe mode either cos the standard keys dont seem to work F8 selects the boot device on my system :spangled:

    How the hell do i break the loop and isolate the prob?!

    :angry:
