Computer is restarting alone after 10-20 min. of being shut down Sunday, October 19, 2003 at 11:47 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Leif (11 messages posted) Hey guys I have a question...... My computer is restarting alone after it has been shut down for more than 10 minutes...this varies a bit...it can be 2 or 30 minutes ....it started happening after I fixed someones computer.... I hooked up my keyboard, mouse and monitor to his rig ...after I was done, I hooked everything back up to my rig and everything worked fine.... but about 3 minutes after the first shutdown the computer restarted automatically.... I've searches extensively in the forums...but I haven't been able to find a solution...everybody seems to have a problem shutting down....but I can shutdown fine....it just restarts after a while.....I really don't want to have to reformat the harddrive again and reinstall windows....I already had to do it once... hopefully someone has a response.... thanks in advance Responses to this message: re: Computer is restarting alone after 10-20 min. of being shut down (Mike: Monday, October 20, 2003 at 1:13 am) re: Computer is restarting alone after 10-20 min. of being shut down (Tom Myboy: Monday, October 20, 2003 at 1:48 pm) re: Computer is restarting alone after 10-20 min. of being shut down (C K: Monday, October 20, 2003 at 7:38 pm) All messages in this thread [show all] Computer is restarting alone after 10-20 min. of being shut down (Leif: Sun, Oct 19, 2003, 11:47 pm) re: Computer is restarting alone after 10-20 min. of being shut down (Mike: Mon, Oct 20, 2003, 1:13 am) re: Computer is restarting alone after 10-20 min. of being shut down (Leif: Mon, Oct 20, 2003, 11:07 am) re: Computer is restarting alone after 10-20 min. of being shut down (Tom Myboy: Mon, Oct 20, 2003, 1:48 pm) re: Computer is restarting alone after 10-20 min. of being shut down (C K: Mon, Oct 20, 2003, 7:38 pm) re: Computer is restarting alone after 10-20 min. of being shut down (Leif: Tue, Oct 21, 2003, 8:11 pm) Reply or follow-up to this message Search this forum Start a new thread on a different subject Report abuse of the forum Return to the Windows XP Discussion Forum
