I'm not sure what the exact problem is, though I'm implied to believe it is a virus of some sort, any help would be a appreciated.
The computer that is experience problems is a laptop with XP installed. When the computer started up first and told me something was wrong and asked me how I wanted to boot, i figured it was because I had held the power button to shut it down, and just selected normal. The computer began to boot with the Windows XP logo and the bar continuing as usual, then the computer just restarted. I again selected normal, and this time I noticed for a split second, before the computer restarted, a blue screen flash. This time fearing the worst, I selected safe mode and everything was going well, then again, after logo and the bar going, the computer restarted. I went to last known configurations, and again it flashed a blue screen and restarted. Any ideas?
The computer is old enough that it is reasonable that a hardware issue could be the problem as the fan hasn't been working right for a good while now.
