My pc has fallen ill, and I cannot understand why, it first fell unwell and began to take forever booting up. But now it welcomes me to Microsoft XP then tries to boot up but suddenly shuts down and restarts, this ground hog process then continues to repeat its self on into the forseable future. That is unless there's a specialist person out there somewhere who has a cure for this crippling illness.1 person needs an answerI do too

The Advanced Boot Options screen lets you start Windows in advanced troubleshooting modes. You can access the menu by turning on your computer and pressing the F8 key before Windows starts. This prevents Windows from automatically restarting if an error causes Windows to fail. Choose this option only if Windows is stuck in a loop where Windows fails, attempts to restart, and fails again repeatedly. Once you’ve disabled automatic restart, you would be able to view the exact error message. Make a note of it and let us know the exact error message. Hope this helps. Let us know the result.
