My system sometime can't boot

 My computer can not restart. I have the system as below:  
1) AMD Athlon XP 15000+ (NOT over clock) default CPU Volt: 1.71V
2)  512 MB PC133 Kingston Value Ram (Double side  with 8 chips per side)
3) 300 watt Enlight Power Supply

5) 40*12*48 Aopen CD-RW Drive
6) OS – Windows XP Professional + Service Pack 1
7)  VIA Service Pack 4.43  
 I upgrade my system with change of main board  to MSI K7T Turbo2 (Bios version- 3.5 & date- 07/01/02)
and  MSI MS-8852 Geforce 2 MX400 Card (64MB).
   Before the upgrade ,the system runs perfectly ,after the upgrade and installation of programs ,the system sometimes can not rebooted using “ restart ” command through windows program. However it can booted using reset button. Unplug the reset button ,also same .
   I would be much obligrd of you give me some suggestion to solve this problem.  
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,
When you replace a motherboard it's recommended you install Windows again from scratch.
Have you done this?

  • Kernel panic after system update - can't boot :(

    Hi
    I've applied some pending updates to the system while restarting my MBP (I'm not sure, but it probably has contained the update from 10.6.3 to 10.6.4) but now it won't boot - I get a kernel panic.
    When I boot instead using an external USB drive with a 10.6.3 installation on it, I get the message about the panic (below).
    Any ideas how to solve this would be VERY MUCH appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Kappy, I have various bluetooth devices (headset, wireless wacom tablet, etc) that I use from time to time, but the kernel panic happens very early in the boot process.
    When I tried booting in safe mode (holding shift), I got the panic much sooner, but of a different type now:

  • Re: Satellite L310 - Can't boot from HDD

    Hi
    My L310 just died on me yesterday. My system just can't boot, not even in Safe Mode. And it keeps trying to boot via my network card, not through hard disk.
    I have set it to the default BIOS settings but it doesn't help.
    And it has this continuous loud beeping tone when it tries to boot via the network card. Beeping continues, even at the BIOS screen and during safe mode.
    I have manually selected the hard drive but it keeps trying to boot through the network card.
    And the laptop does not respond to the keyboard. Even with an external usb keyboard. When I sometimes manage to boot my system on the rare occasion, I arrive at the log in screen and can't key in my password.
    Does anybody have similar problems?
    Let me know. Thanks!

    It looks like that your HDD is faulty. Does the BIOS recognize it?
    You should test the HDD with Drive Fitness Test. Download the CD image, burn it on a CD and boot from it:
    http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/download.htm#DFT
    Check this and give us a feedback. Maybe the HDD must be replaced.
    About the keyboard issue its not easy to say what causes the problem but in worst case it must replaced too. :(

  • How can I boot from my recovery dvd to reach the system recovery C: on a extern hard disc

    I think a have a virus in my notebook Pavilion 15 and want to restore my C partition with a system back up. I made this system back up a month ago and it is stored on a extern hard disc. I have also made a recovery dvd. How can I boot my notebook from my dvd to start the procedure? I have 2 partions on my notebook. The second partition contains My Documents.
    Thanks in advance.
    Tineke

    It is unlikely that the back-up of the system recovery, that you have stored on an external drive, will be useful in recovering your computer. Please see HP PCs - Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8), for instructions on using the HP Recovery Disc set your created earlier. Typically, the disc set is 4 to 6 DVDs.
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • Can't boot after system update: unknown filesystem type

    After running a system update, including updating the kernel, I can't boot to the new kernel.
    On booting, grub loads the kernel image, runs/loads udev, but then fails to mount the root partition with error:
    mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext4'
    I have tried reinstalling the 'linux' package via packman several times, also trying the --recursive argument to make sure all my dependencies were there, and after days of googling and tweaking my system, I'm at a loss.
    Thank goodness I happened to keep a spare kernel laying around in /boot.
    Thanks in advance.
    Last edited by jackrabbit (2012-03-22 23:25:28)

    The OP can read their partition initially though, it's only after udev that they can't.
    Also, try adding "rootfstype=ext4" to your grub kernel line. Is your /boot on a separate partition or part of your / partition?

  • I took the system file out of the system folder on os 9.2 can't boot to put file back in machine also has osx 10.2 but won't let me boot to either need os 9 compatible boot disk I think?

    I took the system file out of the system folder on os 9.2 can't boot to put file back in machine also has osx 10.2 but won't let me boot to either need os 9 compatible boot disk I think?

    If the OS X 10.2 on the hard drive is/was bootable, try this -
    Restart or boot, then immediately press the X key, keep it held down until you know the machine has started to boot using OS X. This is a hardware instruction to the Mac to boot using the first usable instance of OS X it finds.
    Once booted to OS X, you should be able to move OS 9's System file into OS 9's System Folder.
    Note - in general, unless you know for sure what you are doing and that the results are desired, do not relocate or rename files in OS 9's System Folder or in OS X's System or Library folders.

  • Unsupported chassis type 52, system can not boot

    I'm trying to get a spare Sup. V engine module operational in a 4507E and get the above message when it try to boots.
    I am not aware if this spare had been used in production before.
    Not sure if I need to open a support ticket, so I thought I would see if anyone else has seen this behavior.

    You don't have the right IOS version to meet the minimum requirements for this chassis.
    See the following document
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps5718/ps4324/product_data_sheet0900aecd801792b1.html
    Table 5 lists 12.2(40)SG as the minimum IOS required for a 4507R-E chassis and 12.2(54)SG as the minimum IOS for a 4507R+E chassis. You only have 12.2(37)SG1 on your engine, hence the lack of boot.
    Upgrade the IOS via ROMMON (slow and painful, but it'll work) and re-try.
    Cheers.

  • Was working now not, Can not boot any more system error

    I've got a Summer 2001 Snow iMac that was working under 10.3.9 but my attempt to back date has failed and now only get the classic OS 9 folder with a question mark which means can't find system files. It all started when I selected a OS 9.0.4 folder using the startup pref in 10.3.9 and now can't get it to do any thing. I have tried every thing I know but can't get it to boot up from the OS 9.0.4 or a 9.1 cd nor back to 10.3.9, not even holding down the option key works. The only thing I have are the two OS 9 disc, is there any thing I can do? I can get it to boot to the firmware mode but don't know any commands. PLease help.

    A +Summer 2001+ iMac G3 cannot boot Mac OS 9.0.4. It came pre-installed with 9.1.
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/stats/imac600graphite.html
    Macs can generally boot a version of Mac OS that it came with, or LATER (up to hardware limitations), but NOT earlier. 9.0.4 is earlier than 9.1.
    Try resetting PRAM.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    The startup disk setting is stored in PRAM. Resetting PRAM should clear the current setting and use a default choice (which hopefully will boot 10.3.9).
    If that does not work, restart holding down the X key. That should force a restart with the installed Mac OS X system. If you get it to restart properly, trash that 9.0.4 system.

  • When I boot in safe or regular mode, I get this on my Macbook Pro with upgraded Mavrick System Unapproved caller. SecurityAgentmay only be invoked by Apple software.  I can't boot my computer.

    Unapproved caller. SecurityAgentmay only be invoked by Apple software. I just upgraded to Maverick and now I can't boot in regular or safe mode on my Macbook Pro.

    I suggest you call Apple Care. However, the following is the BEST I can remember what I did as intructed by Apple Tech Support. I have a Time Machine Backup external hard drive.
    Turn off computer
    Turn on and @ first sign of life, press and hold the Option button
    Follow the directions:
    Click: Repair disk
    Click: Repair Disk permissions
    Get out of the section then pick the reinstall
    Option reinstall
    If that did not work: it did not for mine:
    Do the same as above and click erase disk. If you have a Time Machine Back up, you can return you Mac back into working order w/your applications software, i.e. Word: mac 2008, Skype, etc.
    Unplug you external hard drive to eliminate any possible confusion.
    After an  erase disk when starting like above (hold option button down while booting) and doing a total install,
    Plug in your external drive with you Time Machine backups.
    Only check applications and only users. Uncheck other files… and computer …
    http://www.bing.com/search?q=macbook+migration&pc=MOZI&form=MOZSBR
    After I did this, my computer went back to normal. Takes about a day. Good luck. It isn't easy and there are no short cuts I know of but better than having to find an Apple Store or shipping your Mac in for a repair.

  • Can't boot from DVD using C key

    I desperately need to use DiskWarrior on my startup disk. I have used it on my secondary internal hard disk with no problems. A couple of years ago my Apple keyboard went up on me and I needed a replacement immediately (I worked from home), so I ran out to OfficeDepot and bought a Microsoft keyboard that had software with it to make it run with a Mac. It has done fine for me. However, when trying to boot from DiskWarrior, I hold the C key down and it doesn't boot from the DVD, it just boots from my internal startup disk. I was able to install Mac OS X 10.4 with the DVD and this keyboard, however. DiskWarrior tech support dudes tell me it is the fault of the Microsoft keyboard. I'm not so sure (since I installed 10.4 with this keyboard). I don't want to buy an Apple keyboard "just in case." But perhaps this is a known issue by somebody "out there." Any help would be appreciated (before my startup disk explodes altogether). Thanks!

    I have 3 Microsoft keyboards, going back to my G4 MDD. Usually plugged into an Apple Display, but on some occassions I've had to plug it directly into front USB port (or rear, front is accessible).
    The one thing that I would do, is not just "zap PRAM" from cold boot, but boot into the Open Firmware screen and RESET-NVRAM, and see if that helps. Force the device ID list to be rebuilt, and does a more complete job than zapping can.
    There have been a lot of major problems with Apple USB hub type support. I too was troubleshooting an issue and got the "run around."
    The only time I've seen where someone could not boot from a DVD/CD was when the hard drive in the system directory was severely corrupt - OS X looks to find any and all bootable devices even when you boot from CD or another drive. And a damaged journaling file is even harder to fix usually.
    Outside of the G4 PCI model (1999, early '00) a G4 can boot from Firewire, any problem I'd guess was a defective FW port; some FW cases themselves.
    I never really use DW CD. Always always clone your system; create an Emergency boot drive to work from - and used only in emergency so you know it works and isn't just a backup. And, of course, a backup of your working system.
    USB cables can flake out. Even new. The USB extension cable Apple includes being one such that has been known to be the culprit. So doubt and verify any cables and devices.
    One G5 owner has a LaCie drive not even connected, but the FW cable was, hanging out the back, and would cause:
    slow boot sometimes; kernel panic other times; pull the cable, life is back to normal again. FW cables and devices (not sure if LaCie has the market cornered or not) that "wipe out" FW ports, cause shorts, should be avoided (maybe banned).
    I've used an MS keyboard for about 4 yrs on my G4, still running 10.4.11. Ever since my Apple split ergonomic keyboard died, and I've got 4 Apple Pro keyboards sitting around (I can palm a basketball but don't like typing on small keyboards). Currently use MS 3000 and 4000 keyboards.
    There are lots of reports of Leopard where the system is not responding, but the mouse able to move, but no interaction - can't launch anything or even bring up the Force Quit dialogue. The system being totally non-responsive, and people force shutdown, with high potential of leaving the directory in disrepair.
    Mac OS 10.2.5 was suppose to fix and solve USB hub problem. That updated lasted less than two weeks. USB issues have been around, as have Firewire problems. Even Windows Vista can loose track of and get confused by unplugging/replugging devices multiple times that it looses the device ID.

  • [SOLVED] Can't boot Windows 8 using grub2. invalid EFI file path

    English is not my native language. Please excuse typing errors.
    I have just successfully installed Arch linux with grub2 as its boot manager. I
    followed the arch beginner guide. I've used grub before and I'm familiar with
    it, so chose to use grub instead for efistub. I installed os-prober and
    ran grub-mkconfig to create the grub.cfg file. The problem now is that I recieve
    an error when I try to boot windows 8. I have two drives (/dev/sda and /dev/sdb)
    and I believe both are EFI-systems.
    However, it's not very important for me to use grub, so if booting into windows
    8 is easier using efistub, I will try that.
    The computer is ASUS ux32vd with a hybrid disk with 25GB on the SSD and 500GB on
    the hard drive. I believe the SSD part is used by Windows.
    This is the first error I recieved when I tried to boot windows.
    error: can't find command `drivemap'.
    error: invalid EFI file path.
    Press any key to continue...
    Then I tried to follow this post
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=150183 and made a new boot
    entry "Windows 82". And I got a new error:
    error: unspecified search type.

    I gave up trying to make grub work, so I uninstalled grub and deleted all the grub files I could find.
    # pacrem grub-efi-x86_64
    # rm -fr /boot/grub
    That last one I came to regret later on. So I installed rEFInd using the archlinux beginners guide. When I then tried to boot into windows It told me that /boot/grub/x86_64-efi/normal.mod was not found. I then reinstalled grub-efi-x86_64 and copied /usr/lib/grub/x86_64 to /boot/grub. Now everything works fine.

    8 is easier using efistub, I will try that.
    The EFI stub loader is a Linux-only boot loader; however, it is possible to use the EFI stub loader in conjunction with a separate boot manager, such as rEFInd or gummiboot. In such a configuration, you'd use the boot manager to select the OS to boot (Windows or Linux, and possibly the specific Linux kernel), and the boot loader (the Windows loader or the EFI stub loader built into a specific kernel) will then take over booting the OS. In Arch, this is often easier to configure than is GRUB, since GRUB is very complex and its automated tools to help with setting things up often get it wrong.
    This is the first error I recieved when I tried to boot windows.
    error: can't find command `drivemap'.
    error: invalid EFI file path.
    Press any key to continue...
    The "drivemap" command in GRUB is generally used when booting a BIOS-mode boot loader, and in fact your "Windows Recovery Environment (loader) (on /dev/sda2)" and "Windows 8 (loader) (on /dev/sda4)" GRUB entries are both built as for BIOS-mode Windows installations -- but the fact that your disks both use GPT means that Windows won't boot in BIOS mode on your computer. (This is one of the many things that the GRUB setup scripts can get wrong.)
    Then I tried to follow this post
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=150183 and made a new boot
    entry "Windows 82". And I got a new error:
    error: unspecified search type.
    error: file '/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi' not found
    Press any key to continue...
    Both your "Windows 8" and "Windows 82" entries refer to an EFI boot loader file called EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi on your EFI System Partition (ESP). This should be correct, but your Boot Info Script output doesn't show any evidence of such a file. Sometimes Boot Info Script misses such things, so you may want to check it just to be sure. Your ESP is /dev/sda1, and it looks like it's being mounted at /boot/efi by default, so check for the /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft directory tree, and for /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi in particular. If that file isn't present, then something is wrong -- perhaps you mistakenly erased the ESP when you installed Linux, thus wiping out the Windows boot loader; or perhaps the file was accidentally deleted somewhere along the way. (Note that on FAT, which the ESP uses, case is irrelevant, and in fact case varies between the filenames reported by Boot Info Script and what's recorded in your configuration files.)
    You do have another boot loader file that may be a duplicate of the Windows boot loader: EFI/BOOT/bkpbootx64.efi. This filename is generally created by Ubuntu's "Boot Repair" tool, which IMHO can do as much harm as good, especially on a system that's not booting Ubuntu. If you ran this tool, though, it's conceivable that bkpbootx64.efi is a copy of the Windows boot loader, so copying it to EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi might get things working. OTOH, the Windows boot loader relies on other files to do its job, so if they're not present, copying the Windows boot loader to its original location won't be sufficient.
    If you can't get things working based on the preceding suggestions, I recommend you run a Windows repair tool. These are accessible from a Windows recovery disc. Such disc images are readily available on the Internet, but I don't happen to have any links handy. Try Microsoft's own site; images obtained from random third-party sites might contain malware. Once you've done this, chances are the computer will boot directly into Windows. You'll then need to either restore GRUB as the default boot loader or install another boot loader or boot manager.  You can use the Windows "bcdedit" command to do the former, as in:
    bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\arch-grub\grubx64.efi
    You'll need to type this from an Administrator Command Prompt window.

  • Can't Boot From Install Disc 1 ?

    Holding down "C" at Start Up isn't working.
    Most of the time I can't get Preferences > Start-Up to even "see" my Disc 1.
    When I can get it to show up in Start-Up, and Select it, and Lock it ... it Still Won't Start Up from the Install Disc 1 ... and in fact usually ejects the disc.
    Sometimes when I re-push in the disc, I get the message that a Blank Disc has been detected, "what do you want to do with it."
    But, it shows up in Disc Utility, and when I run Verify Disc, it all looks good?!
    The Disc has Mac OS version 10.4.8 on it. I'm running 10.5.7. I'm all up to date with my software.
    Yesterday I ran the latest version of Disc Warrior. When I run TechTools 4.0 it seems to get stuck running Files. When I run Repair Permissions from Disc Utilities, it shows a fairly massive amount of issues. Running it over and over again doesn't seem to make any difference.
    I WANT to run my Install Disc so I can run Repair Disc from Disc Utility ... because I'm having a number of issues ... and I seem to get the spinning rainbow a lot.
    SUGGESTIONS ?! ... thanks ...

    Disk Utility that can repair a 10.5.7 permissions is only found on the Leopard installer disc. Tiger can't repair Leopard when it comes to permissions, and may also have difficulty with the directory.
    Secondly, if your MacBook Pro was purchased after October 26, 2007, it can't boot from any Tiger disc.
    If your MacBook Pro was purchased prior, you can use the disk, but you'll want to follow these directions for hardware diagnostics:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303081
    Only if your MacBook Pro has Tiger installed, should you use Tiger for the directory or permissions*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/directoryfaq.html
    Macs can only boot from the operating system that shipped with them, and newer retail operating systems. This means:
    1. pre-October 1st, 2007 MacBook Pros can boot off:
    - - the discs that shipped with them
    - - retail 10.5 discs which look like * that do not say Upgrade, DropIn, or OEM.
    2. October 1st through October 25, 2007 can do #1, and also use Upgrade and DropIn discs. Those disks were offered as a limited time mail order Up to date program, some were dropped in the box that came with them.
    3. October 26th through November 14, 2007 can boot off the discs that came with them, and retail 10.5.1, 10.5.4, and 10.5.6 discs that do not say Upgrade, DropIn, or OEM, and have a label like the image above.
    4. November 15, 2007 through June 29, 2008 can boot off the discs that came with them, and the retail 10.5.4, and 10.5.6 discs that do not say Upgrade, DropIn, or OEM, and have a label like the image above.
    5. June 30, 2008 through December 14, 2008 can boot off the discs that came with them, and the retail 10.5.6 discs that do not say Upgrade, DropIn, or OEM, and have a label like the image above.
    6. December 15, 2008 and later MacBook Pros can only boot off the discs that came with them.
    Presumably when Snow Leopard comes out in September, all of the above will be able to use Snow Leopard because of the specs on http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html

  • Can't boot from OSX cd - Kernel Panic or bad CPU?

    Greetings, All! I've looked at all the articles related to this that I can find, here and on other sites, but have not been able to solve the problem. Here's a list to briefly describe my issue:
    -Got Prohibitory sign on my MDD Dual 867 when I tried booting into OS X (10.3).
    -Tried all the resets (PRAM, PMU), re-seated RAM, took out RAM, etc.
    -Trashed OS, and tried to re-install, but Mac won't boot from DVD (10.3) or CD (10.2) - just get the spinning wheel and finally Prohibitory sign...
    -Ran Hardware test to loop for about 17 hours; nothing, all fine.
    Then I just recently noticed that when I run Digital Performer 3 (OS9), it usually shows 2 usage indicators for CPU performance (1 for each processor) but now only shows one. So, I'm thinking a processor may have died, or become unseated, or something. But I read somewhere, on one of the forums, that it isn't likely for one of a pair of processors to go, or if it did, the other wouldn't be able to function solo. But if that weren't the case, and the Mac can run on 1 processor, why would that keep the Mac from booting from the OSX disk?
    The Mac still runs fine in OS9, though it does seem to be a little slower when I do processor-intensive operations in DP, and sometimes hangs on startup, and seems to have some "sleep" issues (won't wake back up sometimes...). I don't know of any way to check if both processors are functioning in OS9. Does anyone know of a utility that will do that? Or if there's one in the OS (The Profiler only shows processor speed)? And would that cause the Kernel Panic and keep the Mac from booting in OSX? It's very frustrating. I appreciate any help or tips anyone may have to offer. Peace, Gelon

    Hey Guys!
    I think I know the "why", but not the solution...
    I have a PowerMac G4 400Mhz Dual Processor, and some day I had the same troubles. No boot on OS X, but I can in OS9. Checking the Open Firmware commands, I saw one of the processor marked as "dead". So, (dont't ask how) I removed one processor from the logic board. Now I got the same "Processor dead", I can boot on OS9, (with an alert for the processor) but is stable. No boot in OS X.
    So, what I suposse (having the same reports in PC computers trying to run OS X) is that the OS X checks for the compliance of the System for running. When a processor fails, the OS X can not recognize the system as valid (as in some PC computers happens) and can not boot. I also suposse if we can get a "patched" OS X for PowerPC or patch the firmware in any way, we can work with just one processor. Or, buying a new processor for the Mac.
    Pls. send me your comments.

  • I Desperately Need Help - Can't Boot my iMac

    Greetings Everyone. My apologies for making my debut on this board with a desperate plea for help but I think I just killed my iMac right in the middle of an important project. I'm accessing this board with my laptop PC (and you know I'm in a bad way when I have to revert to anything PC!)
    I was trying to move some photos from iPhoto onto a CD. One photo would not move - computer said it was 'busy.' I couldn't delete it or anything so I force quit to see if I could start over.
    The machine did reboot okay, so I thought perhaps I should try to restart in in OS9 (Im using 10.3.8 or 9 (can't remember and can't boot to confirm.) because I read somewhere that sometimes rebooting in OS9 will correct whatever has 'hung' in X - for lack of a better description.
    Well, that's when it crashed. When I try to boot it the entrance sound makes its bong and the the light blue screen comes on and just sits there and does nothing, no matter how long I wait.
    I tried to force boot it by holding in the start button until the list of instructions came on the screen. Tried typing mac-boot as instructed, and nothing happened. I tried three times. Then I tried shut-down and it did shut down.
    That's as far as I can get. I hold in the start button until it makes a beeping noise, then it bongs, then the blue screen comes on and just sits there.
    Have I fried my machine or is there any hope?
    Can you tell I'm just about frantic???
    Thanks for your patience. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I live in a fairly remote rural area with no Mac dealers within 200 kms - so I'm really stuck on this one.

    Tried a few more tricks and finally got it to boot.
    I held down the P R Apple & Option keys and waited for the second chimes. Nothing happened.
    I disconnected everything but the mouse and keyboard and tried rebooting again.
    Lo and Behold it worked.
    I think the HP printer cable might be faulty, but don't know for sure what is actually going on.
    This whole problem started because my printer suddenly died. I tried to remove then reload the software but kept getting the message that no device was attached, even though it was.
    So I decided to save all my hard drive info onto CD's then reload the system software. Everything came to a halt when I couldn't delete the 'busy' image.
    So for now, I'm back in business. Whew!
    If anyone has any idea what on earth is going on I'd sure like to know. Do printer cables just go bonkers for no reason? And why would an image from iPhoto be 'busy' when I tried to delete it. Is that image doing something naughty that I need to know about?
    I think I need a nice cold beer!

  • U460 can't boot up

    I can't boot up the laptop. Its only 5 months since I bought its and seldom used.
    Here's the scenario. I click on the power button, then the top right 3 icons light up. The next moment, I hear a "tick" sound, and the laptop shuts off.
    This happens with/ without the battery + the charger. But with the battery, after plugging in/out the charger and starting it up multiple times. I manage to get it to boot up, and the system runs as per normal. Restarting it works fine as well. Once I shutdown the laptop,remove the charger, after sometime.. the same problem comes back again.
    Its not the battery because its fully charged when I manage to boot it up.
    Any idea what's happening?

    try to perform clean windows installation first. check download page for bios updates.
    if windows loads, try to use disk check for errors. also, do not forget to check system logs for errors.
    ( right click my computer > manage > event logs )
    post back the results.
    if issue persists, you may have power or hard disk issue.i suggest you to call support line.
