I have a w2k pc 1.6mhz, 512Ram

I was looking at an autocad drawing and my computer locked up. It would not respond. after awhile when i couldn't get in to task manager, I restarted the computer. The computer boots up and I get the white window 2000 loading screen. Then the syten goes toa blank screen and reboots. This is all it will do. I tried starting in safe mode. That does not work either. It gives me the option to start in safe mode, but just keeps rebooting. I tried windows repair, but it will not repair. I replaced memory also.

I don't waht to reinstall the OS since I can't find my autocad cd to reinstall it.

any help would be greate.

If you have a full version CD you can do a repair install.
Boot the 2000 CD via the bios and start install.
When given the choice of new or repair choose repair.
This will keep intact your configuration and programs/data.
You will have to redo your updates since you are back at square one.

I have this problem as well... I did a cmos wipe and re-formated and re-installed, and now it's doing it again. I tried to repair but it reboots when it tries to repair. I'm getting sick of this.

sure its not an overheat problem? does it stay on longer when you cold boot?

if so check all your fans and make sure they are all workign and not too dusty...also make sure your case is well ventalated that helps....ummm and fans that arent working by the power box will make it reboot super fast....so hope i help =D
