Hi there everybody
its me again with another fun segment of whats wrong with my computer....
on a serious note
My home built computer is on the fritz and it wont seem to boot... and it will get into the BIOS and sometimes it freezes there. anyway it will start the loading screen for windows and then it will just restart.... or freeze. I tryed changing the ram, and my video card but still nothing.
Here are some specs for you nice folks out there willing to help me.
AMD +4000 CPU << or something like that lol Ram 512- 2 gigs depends on the day :D but that dosent matter Video card X16000 or ATI DH 4870
Firstly clear that when you install winXP it is properly install & check that the bios settings

First of all check the cooling mechanisam of your PC, if the problem still continues try booting in safe mode and check what ever driver you have installed which could have an effect with the OS.
if you do not remember what driver you have installed then i suggest you boot in safe mode and restore your settings to the date before the problem accured, atleast for one day.
Please Let me know if your Problem continues .
