Hey guys, i have a windows 2000/millenium edition and i use windows xp software. The problem is everytime i go to normally run my computer, it reboots and a blue screen pops up for a few microseconds and sends me to safe mode options on my next reboot. I tryed using system restore but that reboots my computer as well when i try to run it.
All help would be apreciated.

There is no System Restore in Windows 2000. There is in Windows ME. I don't know what you mean by you're using Windows XP software though.

Can you boot into Last Know Good Configuration for 2000 or Safe Mode for ME?

Life is more painless for those who are brainless.

I'm not sure what any of it means - - 3 distinctly different OSes are claimed, yet the stated OS is XP (and this is the Win2K forum)

"Manufacturer/Model: windows 2000"

... again, that is an OS, not a manufacturer - best if you can determine which (Control Panel -> System -> General) and then select the appropriate forum for your query

I don't think you actaully checked, as advised, since 'last known good configuration' is not a WinME boot option - as well, Windows Millennium had no service packs as such

Just look and see what OS you are running - sounds like XP(?), but it's something to marvel at that you don't seem to know

Fixing these problems yourself requires a minimal familiarity with what you have - lacking that, it's going to be uphill at best. It's also nearly always essential to have the M$ installation CD (which should provide a clue all on its own)
