re: Windows 2000 Shuts down Wednesday, February 13, 2002 at 9:22 am Posted by Lazerus (284 messages posted) Does it "shutdown" or "restart"? Just curious, you could have the wake-on lan enabled, and that helps with shutdowns as well. Bios upgrade could resolve it as well.

I have seen a fix in one of the SP from Microsoft, but my machine will not stay running long enough to download the fix. There has to be a simble solution to this problem, because too many people are expericing the same thing. I can't beleive its hardware problems on all these machines. Let me know when you find that solution to this matter.

It is a Sony laptop that came with Millenium. Win Mil. was causing me errors in Authorware. Neither Microsoft or Macromedia could help, so I bought Win 2000 Pro. I had to make some compromises on drivers for built-in devices, because Sony won't support an OS you install. Finally, to the issue: I get vertical lines and the computer restarts as if someone pressed reset. I think I upgraded my Intel display adapter driver, and changed it to give signal out to a TV. I will try looking at that first but if someone runs across this, help is appreciated.
