Howdy all:
So I've encountered this strange problem. I was connecting an external USB drive to my computer, it's a drive I've used hundreds of times before. When I connected it to the computer, the system crashed. When I went to restart the computer the system would show my emachines splash page, then shut down, restart, show the splash page the shut down...again and again.
I've tried restarting in Safe Mode. I get to the screen giving me my startup choices, select one, then get the same rebooting cycle over and over.
The computer is an emaichines with and AMD Athlon XP 3000+ processor. The OS is Windows XP.
ANY advice at all would be MUCH appreciated.
Thanks!
Matt
