Reset config is enabled and runs once and then disables itself automatically, as 
it is designed to do this.  If you changed hardware before the error, then the reset 
may work.  If you didn't, you have a piece of hardware that has failed.  First suspects 
are any of the drives (hard drives, CDROM or floppy, and any USB/solid state memory 
drives).  Usually we troubleshoot by disconnecting all drives and reconnecting them 
one at a time, then trying to boot.  This means that you have to open up the machine. 
 If that doesn't work, then you will have to dig deeper into the other hardware, 
add-on boards, memory etc, sometimes a failing PSU, and anything else connected to 
the machine.  If that doesn't help, then you may/probably have a bad motherboard... 
 You may need a professional to diagnose the issue(s)...  Good Luck!
