Well the call pretty much says it all. I dont have enough time to do anything on it before it restarts. Worried its a virus and i wont be able to shift it because it just keeps restarting. Then again it could be a windows problem so i wasnt sure where to put this. The pc is book in safe mode. Doing a virus scan in safe mode with avg turns up nothing. Its got windows XPcore 2 duo e66002gb ram
Hi Mooser. Does the PC restart itself with a Blue Screen of Death? In safe mode can you check your event logs for any errors (go to My Computer. hold back adorn. Administrative Tools. Event Viewer). If you find any errors gratify can you tell me the obtain. ID and description.
hello again madmonkeynah there is no BSOD in the event viewer there are 4 errorsIn the change surface viewer there are about 9 million errors in each category application 1286 (Application error records)security 1 (security audit records)2843 in system errors (system error records)Intel DH 1759 (Custom log error records)edited for descriptions
I Mo don't recognise any of those events (object Security - ID 1). Are there not any descriptions there? When the PC restarts is it random can you see your desktop icons?
I did a system regenerate from safe mode which seems to have fixed it. comfort would like to experience what it was. There were no descriptions next to the events. When it restarted there was nothing unusual. Everything was functioning fine it just restarted after a little while.
Empty descriptions? are you absolutely sure? I didn't think it was possible to deliver an event without a description. Those events could undergo been a prove of on installed peice of software or malware. It may be a good idea to refer your logs from PCHF Prework on my signature just to be sure as a system restore would undergo only restored essential files and settings but any underlying malware could still be there.
