Need some serious help from computer experts.

I had a similar problem, where it would boot up, crash & re-boot over & over.........I totally stripped the pc & tried everything......even a new HD & a fresh install of the OS........after exhausting every avenue, it turned out to be one of the RAM' modules on it's way out......Re-newed both modules & it was sorted......

After the problems I had with my server, Roscopecotrain, I then had what you're suffering after a Windows update. I couldn't get into safe mode & damn, I deleted the links for what I followed. Anyway, tried allsorts, but the upshot was that I ended up having to switch on & off until I got the BIOS setup & then had to do a complete restore.

Hope you get yours sorted, Ros!

Pc Chris. Asked CC if she can bring a wired keyboard jome from work and see if i can get into the boot menu on start up . Not sure that will sokve the on off problem though which seems to have sorted itself for now.

I had a similar problem a few years ago (win 95 time) on a self-build machine. In my case the problem was badly seated RAM. I had moved the computer which had unsettled badly fitted RAM.

You might just check the RAM chips

Depending on the amount of RAM modules & Module Slots you have Roscopecotrain, you can try eliminating if it's a RAM problem or not by this:

If there are 2 modules inserted (which there probably are), remove one & try firing up the pc again........If no joy, take that module out & insert it in the other slot & try again........Then do the same with the other module that you removed............If one of the modules is naff, it'll still fire up on one...........

By downloading & running this little beauty, I discovered both of my modules were naff, so I re-newed both...........

* It could be your CMOS battery is knackered, but it's best to eliminate any causes one by one..........as I learnt to my expense.........lol

what type of ram do you have ? how old is it ? and when you get into bios (normally hold down delete key or f2 during post) is your mobo showing the same size and type of ram that the stickers on the side of it show ?

it could be bad ram it could be bad cpu or dodgy fsb setting (bad powersuply & or bad mobo) using a torch to give good light look around all the capacitors on the mobo and see if any of them are distorted  perforated or there is any ooze /liquid /residue build up around any of them, bad capacitors will quickly lead to bad everything else...

I had the exact same problem on an asus mobo about 3 years ago and it was down to a bad capacitor (deformed top) rma'd that sucker and its been fine ever since (that depends on who its made by and how long they offer, at the time mine was nearly 3 years old but had a 5 year parts warrenty)

I may be wrong, but it won't boot properly without any RAM anyway.............
