Win2K Restarts Unexpectedly & Repeatedly

by theagleonline . Updated 23 years, 4 months ago

I’m using Win 2000 Professional with downloaded SP3, and I’m stumped on a problem that’s been occuring.

For no apparent reason, the system will suddenly restart, without going to a blue screen, and will do so repeatedly. Sometimes you’re able to use the computer for hours before it starts rebooting, and sometimes you’ve barely been logged on for a second.

The restart does not seem to be associated with any actions, but I have noticed a few times that it restarted right as I clicked on a button or tried to start an application (usually IE 6).

One thing that’s weird is the fact that when I go to the Event Log, there aren’t any errors. I’ve also gone to System Properties>Advanced>Startup/Recovery and disabled the Automatic Reboot upon System Failure. But this hasn’t worked. I have never seen a blue screen or any other error. The computer just keeps restarting unexpectedly.

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated! Please!
