PC keeps restarting after 3 hours

Using Windows Vista please, all fans are running, acts as a heating problem but I have had this pc for 2 years and then just starts to restart. I did a clean install, reinstalled the drivers and always restart. Everything started after I installed a game I bought in a shop. BUT game is now off my pc (after a clean install) and it still restarts. Restarts like every 2-3 hours. I blew the PC with canned air. Any suggestions? I get no error message. NO blue screen, just goes to a black screen then restarts. Dell inspiron 530

Hello

Of course, this looks like an overheating problem or certainly a hardware problem. Video card

See that a blue screen does not mean it is not a.

If it's software it must be something in the observer of events and/or Mini-decharges.

  • PC keeps restarting after that I copied some files

    my pc keeps restarting after countless attempts trying to remove this file dvd that I copied from a dvd. When I tried to delete this file using a different account, the cycle just repeats.

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • After removing the Tdss rootkit, computer laptop My Windows Vista Home Premium keeps restarting after the connection. __

    I had the Tdss rootkit on my laptop and removed using TDSS Killer of Kasperky. After the reboot, I have connected and saw a box that displays "Please Wait". After 5 to 10 seconds, my computer restarts. After the reboot, it shows options for Windows Vista loading, i.e. the safe mode, safe mode with network. I chose the mode safe mode with networking and everything works fine. The system properties box opens automatically. When I try to boot into normal mode, he repeated restart after the connection. I tried to run a restore of the system into safe mode with networking, but it tells me something about the system restore is in mode offline. I hit a brick wall and don't know what to do next. I don't want to if I have more options to factory default restore.

    The TDSS rootkit is very destructive.  It is not uncommon to make a computer work is not properly after removing it.  I advise you to restore your computer to factory default.  Not only is this the best option, it's the safest option.  I wouldn't consider the computer to be trusted without going through the restore process.  Even if you can be sure that 100% of the infection has been removed, you have no way of knowing what changes the malware made to the settings on your computer, which may be exceptionally vulnerable to future malware attacks.

    Hello

    We are here to help.

    The reason why your PC restarts after you turn it off, it's because there is something wrong which makes crashing. Normally, there will be an error message coming up, like Blue Screen of Death, when it crashes instead of rebooting the system. But for some reason, your PC is defined as automatically restart and hide the real problem of your PC.

    To change the settings, please follow the steps below:

    1. Click the Start button
    2. Type ""sysdm.cpl " without the quotes, and then press enter."
    3. Click the Advanced tab
    4. Click on the settings button under the ' start and Recovery ' part.
    5. In the new window you are invited there, uncheck automatically restart under the part of the system failure .
    6. Then, click OK

    With these changes, Windows will restart is no longer after closing down instead he will now take the error message that your PC can be seen.

  • MacBook Pro keeps restarting after iPhone updated 9.3.5

    Given that I didn't have at least a 50% load, I connected my iPhone 6 s to my MacBook Pro (10.11.6) updated the phone to v. 9.3.5. The phone updated fine, but now my Mac keeps on rebooting over and over again. The display shows the Apple logo and progress bar, but there are thin horizontal red lines across the entire screen. When the progress bar is full, the gray screen runs for about 10 seconds and then restarts, and it does the same thing again. I have absolutely no idea what to do. Can anyone help?

    If I understand your message that after upgrading your iPhone 6s to iOS 9.3.5 via iTunes on your MacBook Pro, your MacBook Pro now repeatedly restarts. I know how it is important for your MacBook Pro start correctly for you. The first step I would recommend would be to start up your Mac in Mode without failure.

    Tell me what are the steps to solve this problem

    Hi Amrbialy,
    When your computer is turned on, push and hold down F8, this will bring an option before it starts on your desktop. Choose "last known good configuration".
    If this has no effect. Then do the same thing, except choose Safe Mode. When it boots to desktop click Start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore.

    Then it will give you an option to choose a date to return. Choose a date before you install updates, and then click OK. Restart your computer.

    It will be useful.

  • PC keeps restarting after the Windows startup screen

    I recently bought a refurbished HP compaq 6005 microtour office format. The computer came with a blank hard drive with no OS loaded on this subject. Before this purchase, I owned a laptop with a Samsung EVO 850 250 GB SSD inside which has Windows 7 installed and worked fine until the motherboard went bad on it. I removed the SSD that laptop and installed in the new office refurbished. The computer starts up and reaches the HP invent display shows options key function and says "press any key to Option ROM Messages." and then after a few seconds goes to "starting Windows" screen and after a few seconds it goes back to the same HP invent screen.

    I tried the things:

    The hard drive is detected by a name in BIOS

    Made sure boot order has been on hard drive, first

    Tried to start Windows in Mode safe mode, last known good configuration and disable automatic restart in the event of system failure

    When I disabled automatic restart in the event of system failure I got a blue screen that says, "a problem has been detected and windows was forced to need down to avoid any damage to your computer...". ""Search for viruses on your computer. " Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to ensure that it is properly configured and completed. ... "CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.

    Hello David,.

    According to your description, I realize you are trying to install a Portable SSD hard drive in a desktop computer that has Windows 7 installed on it.

    First of all I would say you do not to do since both hard drives have different specifications, and this can adversely affect your computer. I suggest you to contact the manufacturer of your computer before this change of material.

    On Windows, it is not recommended to mix computers with different operating system installed on a hard drive specifications. I would say to reinstall the full operating system such that two computers use different Hardware.

    Hope this information helps. If you need more assistance or information on this question, reply to this post. I'll be happy to help you.
