continous rebooting after blue screen

Sorry, but you didn't mention what OS:
win98?
win95?
win 3.1?
win 3.11?
winnt 3.51?
winnt 4?
win2000?
mac?
lynux?
be?
unix?
for win98 i would try to run in dos scanreg /restore and choose the last known good registry. Keep in mind that once you run that option any programs that you installed since you will have to reinstall. also any settings (not data) since then will be lost.

In some (not all) cases, running the BIOS setup program can clear this up. Try resetting the PCI configuration. Make sure the detected memory matches your expectations. Some computers come with a bootable diagnostic cd which might either pinpointa hardware failure or rule it out. If you can get that far, use the space bar to try the last known good configuration.

Unfortunately, it may come down to installing a new reimaged disk. Once you have it back up and running, install the currentone as a slave and copy off any user files. You can try to examine the old disk's log files for evidence of the problem.

It may seem like cheating but using an image can get you back up and running quickly. Debugging beyond hardware diagnosticscan be open-ended and still not produce results. Unless you keep seeing the same problem over and over I would avoid software/OS debugging in your case.

This may sound silly but, on some machines if the processor or memory get too hot the continous rebooting will occur. Try moving the machine away from a heat source or out of direct sunlight and maybe install and additional fan in the machine.
