Lately i have found that if i do not properly shut down my computer (e.g. start->shutdown) and just press the button, the next time i run windows after i login it will automatically reboot, then i will get an error(after it tries again) that the boot or POST encountered an error, and to go to default settings in bios, then restart again. This also seems to happen if i do use a proper shutdown. Sometimes, it will let me back in after as few as 1 restarts, to 7(today). So, to shorten that up; boot->login->restart->restart->error->bios setup->restart->login->restart until works.
This can get extremely annoying. The computer I’m running is well capable, and was recently purchased. I am 200% positive that it cannot be malware/virus, as i’ve had firewall, router, and other utilities since day 1, and do not visit sites that could give my computer these ailments. Also, i do not think it is power supply related. I have a green lcd fan, and a open window case. My cpu fan runs fine, the temp is low/normal, and the light never goes off, so i doubt its powersupply/overheat related. My harddrives are both new, Seagate SATA harddrives, so i doubt they are corrupt, but perhaps they arent plugged in correctly, or came loose (could this be the culprit? ill check tomorow when i get time).
Is there anything else that could cause this problem?
NOTE: It is not an infinite reboot, i can eventually get onto windows, it is not spyware, it is not overheat/powersupply related, and it is not a corrupt harddrive.
Thanks.
