Comment: Hi all the gurus out there, I need some advise to recover my PC which run on windows 2000. It happened when I installed the latest catalyst from guru3D; Radeon Omega Drivers 3.8.330 (Cat 7.1). After installed I let it all in default setting except I went for a section choosed the speed x8. That's all I did and after rebooted the PC. The windows continue till at log in page. The moment I keyed in my user name & pswd then hit "enter". The monitor screen just blank off about 10 to 15 seconds. My pc rebooted. At 1st I thought it's normal. Until it rebooted again after I log in 2nd time. I have tried a few times and the PC just rebooted after log in. Then I tried to log in in safe mode and the problem is the same; PC rebooted after I log in. I tried to set a command line; /sos at the boot.ini file and reboot ed the PC. It just booted normally. No abnormal activity at boot squence but I just couldn't log in. Need heelpsss..

Reply: (edit)Try to login in Safe Mode. To do so, shut the PC off. Start it up and press F8 repeatedly until a menu comes up. Select "Safe Mode" and hit Enter. Does it boot all the way in without shutting down in Safe Mode? If it does, unistall the driver you just installed and reboot. If your system logs in normally (ie: without shutting down or rebooting) the problem is the driver. I would recommend either going back to the previous driver, or try the new one only don't change that x8 setting.
