    Vista system ib reboot cycle when I shut down
    « on: March 14, 2010, 10:23:20 AM »
    I am on a Dell running Vista home premium (sp2) and when I try to shutdown, it starts the process and then goes straight to reboot.  What should I do to fix...?  Thanks

    Go Start>Run (Start Search in Vista), type in:
    msconfig
    Click OK (hit Enter in Vista).

    Click on Startup tab.
    Click Disable all
    IMPORTANT! In case of laptop, make sure, you do NOT disable any keyboard, or touchpad entries.

    Click Services tab.
    Put checkmark in Hide all Microsoft services
    Click Disable all.

    Click OK.
    Restart computer in Normal Mode.

    NOTE. If you use different firewall, than Windows firewall, turn Windows firewall on, just for this test, since your regular firewall won't be running.
    If you use Windows firewall, you're fine.

    Same problem?
