Need , help...computer reboots, after the icon's load up on the desk top,all the time ...i am in the safe mode now,, ....if you want hjt log let me know.

thanks, ..spoondude

Is this a new problem? Any new hardware or software?

If it is a new problem try a System Restore to a point prior to the problem:

start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore

Hi jephree
Thanks for the fast reply, i don't know what the problem is, it's about 3 weeks old..i did a restore point can't find one thats works.
when i ran spydot it found smith, something.... then when i run it again it says that they find nothing.....i think i might have a bad file somewhere.
I am still running in the safe mode,, What next...you tell me, i will do it..

Spoondude, Thank you

What is the make and model of the computer?

What type of XP disk do you have?

One thing you can try is Check Disk.

Go to start Run... cmd

Then type: chkdsk /f

You will be told that check disk cannot run because you are using this drive. Do you want to run check disk on next boot? Y or N?

Then type Y and reboot the computer.

Hi jephree
Compaq Presario SR1620NX
Windows XP-Home

Let Me try...chkdsk/f...I'll be back

Hi jephree
I did a chkdsk/f..went all the way through the check...stage 3 of 3..ok,
but when i got to the end it rebooted, back to windows,.......befor i could read anything.................i had a plain blue screen.....after about 10 min.
i rebooted back in the safe mode,....thats where i am now.

Here is some reading for you from Compaq. They do not mention if their CD contains the Recovery Console but you could try that before having to reinstall. Boot your XP CD and press the first R for the Recovery Console.

Make sure that the CD drive is set to boot prior to the HDD.

If you can get the recovery console choose to repair: 1)XP Home
If you have no password just press Enter when asked for the password.

In the Recovery Console type: FIXBOOT

Hi jephree
i did a System Recovery....That did the job, everything works fine. the only thing you have to do is reinstall some programs that you put in the system.
all of your data stays the same......
With that i would like to wish you a( Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!)
Thank You For The Help.........SPOONDUDE
