Virus?

oops, i misread.  Thought it was only after windows started.

We had an issue with a server at work which continually restarted and it was due to a faulty memory stick so that might be worth a look.

Hey guys,

Appreiciate the help.  Here are more details:

The computer has a dual boot.  Windows 2000 Pro. and Windows ME.  Both operating systems do this restarting thing.  Its not a virus, because I finally managed to boot the computer up without it restarting after ran McAfee's Stinger, and Norton AV.  I have to keep booting and hope that it doesn't restart.   It sometimes restarts while windows loads and sometimes while windows is loaded. Since there is a dual boot, at this point its almost impossible to load Windows 2000.  But with ME, 1 and every 4 attemps it loads fine a for a while.

So I'm thinking its a hardware thing too.  But what?

CPU Fan?  (Over heating? but why does it load sometimes and sometimes not)

Memory Stick Gone Bad? - (yeah, that could be a possibility)

Hard Drive Gone Bad? - (yeah, maybe....but has anyone heard of a problem like this before?)

Let me know what you guys think,

Thanks in advance,
Majid
