my comp is fairly new, prolly a couple months, and recently, it hasnt been restarting, i dont know what the problem is, i go to start--turn off computer---then a screen appears, and i click restart and it does save settings, and it ssays sumthing else, but then it says "shutting down" and it never shuts down, and it just sits there forever basicly, and i cant seem to kno why it doesnt restart or what the problem could be, please send back if u have any clue at all or can be of any help, thanks
What OS are you on? Have you toyed around with your msconfig yet?
"couple months" --> implying XP?

He's got XP Home. As for msconfig, I dont think he will know what that means. He still learning the PC basics. But I can help him, so relay anything you get to me. THANKS! ;)Quote:

P.S. Could It have anything to do with the fact he has ALOT of programs running. Including Zone Alarm, Norton, McAfee Gaurdian, and much much much more! Could it be that WINXP is having some trouble closing alot of these down and gets so cluttered it just dies? I doubt that it's the HD because he said his PC is fairly new.
Try and remember what programs you installed prior to the issue happening. I know I had an issue with GoBack, after I installed it the same thing happened to me. If you can remember what it was, uninstall it and see if it fixes the prob.
Ah he really doesnt wanna uninstall any of that even if he can remember. :-\Quote:

Why have you posted this question twice within a few minutes? :rolleyes:
People are more likely to answer you if you post once, rather that fill the forum!
