    computer is rebooting at login screen
    « on: July 30, 2009, 02:17:25 PM »
    when i boot my computer and it gets to the login screen it reboots. i tried using safe mood but it does the same.  i replaced the harddrive but i think the guy who put in new parts for me installed a new motherboard he tried to update the bios and the driver failed but i dont think he noticed. does anyone know how i can wipe the bios?

    Who put in the parts for you?

    A tech at a store, licensed under the store to do work?
    Or some guy that your cousins use for dogsitting?

    If it was a guy at a store or tech department, I would take it back with a fair amount of yelling.

      In the future try to stay away from a BIOS update unless you specifically need one.  They can be more trouble than they are worth.
