hello,
I have a friend whos system keeps restarting time and time again at boot up.
I get to the Windows loading screen, then a blue screen flashes up very quickly, too quick to read what it says and then it repeats the process.
I've tried the F8 key and start from last known good configuration, but it makes not difference.
Also tried Safe Mode start, get to the .....Windows\System\Drivers\Mup.sys and it hangs for a while, then restarts again, same process follows.
I think the virus software was up to date, so not sure if it's that, a new game was installed a few days again, but it ran ok for a couple of days until it suddenly went like this.
I remember reading somewhere a process to boot to a command prompt and copy some stuff from the Windows disk, but can't remember what that was?
I've also tried booting to floppy and doing fdisk /mbr, still not change?
If anyone could give me some pointers, it would be appreciated.
Many thanks
