...Unless Automatic Restart is disabled.
I find it odd. The problem originated this morning, when I tried to turn my Sony Vaio on. It would boot up as normal (Normal for us at least. The HDD is failing so we get a little message everytime it boots up), but before hitting the (Windows XP) Log-In screen, would flash a BSOD type deal exceedingly quickly before rebooting itself. It would just loop like that.
So I checked some sites on google, as well as Microsoft's own support section, and was basically informed that I should disable automatic restart so I could view what that blue screen was trying to tell me, therefore I would know what was wrong. But when I disabled it, the computer didn't restart itself, but took very long to get to the login screen. I'm logged on it now, but it's really, really, slow..
And the problem is, because it boots up this way, I can't see the blue screen to tell me what the issue is.
So I was wondering what issues might cause a computer to crash and restart before the log-in screen, or if anyone just happens to outright know what the problem is.
Any additional information required can be given if asked for. I'm still trying to find all the info for my computer. It's just so slow. =\
Thanks in advance.
