Title says what is wrong, only freezes once, flick of power supply, flick on power supply, reboot, loads fine.

Sometimes it say's I'm missing a crucial registry file for it to boot, same thing as above, loads fine.

Sometime it freezes twice, same thing, loads fine.


Os: Xp Sp3


Whats wrong with it.

Don't say reformatt or anything like that, won't help, will still do this.

I have tried. =\

A reformat should fix all of his registry files, so that shouldn't help.

That could be a hardware problem. I remember something similar happened to me, and it turns out I needed to replace my motherboard. What are your hardware specs and how long have you had your PC?

I'm thinking more of a SP3 problem.

Fresh reformat, home edition boots fine.

Sp2 boots fine.

Sp3 doesn't.
