Windows XP Pro. Can anyone help stop continual rebooting?
This has happened on at least three occasions fairly recently.
I have gone into the "safe mode" setting and have tried all there
with no positive results. I start up, get to the first Windows splash
page and then
it automatically reboots. Any and all hints/tips welcome. TIA

Defective power supply seems to be the single most common
source of spontaneous reboots. PSUs are cheap and easily
replaced.
