 Posted: Wed Aug 06, 2003 3:06 pm Post subject: Windows rebooting constantly |
 |
|
I tried to install Win2k on an old P11 266MHZ.
New Ide hard drive 40 ghz
128 RAM
first I was unable to installed the Win2k on this PC , then took the hard
drive to another PC, where I successfully installed the Windows, I took the
hard drive back to the P11. No error message at bootup but after displaying
the text starting Windows, just before it starts the GUI the PC
automatically power down and restart.
I have swap the power supply, and tried with a functioning one from another
PC. Keep getting the same problem
I have swap the video card, and tried with a functioning one from another
PC. Keep getting the same problem
Tried decreasing the Memory that will not help.
Do anyone have any idea what could be the problem.
Thanks in advance |

This sounds like a hardware compatability issue, that win2k wont allow, you |
said you reduced the memory? if anything I would increase it, but I think
the first thing I would do is check the HCL on your hardware, especially if
the hd can go to another machine and it installs and functions normally
just my .02 worth
