All sorts of computer problems

Comment:
For awhile my computer has been locking up while searching the net. I would have to restart again I got used to all this, and just delt with it. But recently (last night) I thought I'd go ahead and do the windows update. Durning this process my computer locked up while i was downloading and install the update. I turned it off (i had to, it just stayed there and didn't continue) Then when I turned my computer back on it goes in the restarting loop --can anyone tell me how I can fix it from restarting over and over again??? Please, thanks!!

Try this...Go to.... Start-> Control Panel-> System-> Advanced-> StartUp and Recovery-> Settings->. Then under "System Failure" uncheck "Automatically restart".
Hope this helps.
