hi, all of a sudden my computer is having a hard time booting into windows. its feels like a banged up car, where u got 2 give it a allot goes 2 get it working, starting and nothing happening, u turn it off, try again, still nothing, just a BEEP,BEEP,BEEP,BEEP, just like a car with out it starting, and when it does start it loads up and when it loads sometimes the WindowsXP logo, all of a sudden turns into a Fuzzy right mess, like pixel fuzz, distorted mess, and it just hangs, sometimes when its getting into windows it will see the login windows screen with my mouse icon and when, it will all of a sudden restart its self and then my monitor wont turn on, just a flashing light on the front as tho my PC isn't switched up.
it took me like 20mins to get into windows this time, I was praying to this computer, please start please, let me back up, like getting on my hands and knees and begging it 2 start, like ya do lol, so I'm like on my knees begging this computer 2 start, praying for it 2 start, and I don't normally pray, but this time I was praying and saying I'll back up if u start, honest I will. please just start so I can back up.
so am backing up right now, but I don't know how long it will hold out, need some quick advice.
when this happened was, when I was messing at the back, I installed this Mic/Stero transferer, u just flick a switch and u can have your head phones, switch it the other way, u have sound coming from your speakers.
but the other day I pressed the switch 2 go into head phone sound and the hole PC restarted its self, sometimes the PC restarts it self wile am in the shower or just afk, I come back and the pc is bumped, black screen, flashing light on monitor as tho the pc is switched off, but not.
also, priar to it all I was defragging.. maybe that might be also, I don't know, but I left my pc on for like a day defraggin, with Diskeeper Pro 9, my friends HD packed out because he defragged with that, he lost everything.
so now am no bothing with organizing I've just taken shit out of folders files reg, emails everything that I need and dumped it into a folder and them slippting them into DVD sive and just backing them all up, I'll do the organizing later, just need that data backing.
am on Windows XP home, 120gb hard drive, amd 2400xp, 128mb g-force 4 ti.
I don't know what else 2 say, the pc is like 2-3yrs old and I aint formatted in like 2yrs, this computer has been the best PC ever, no hassle or anything, a perfect computer, never have to format always working and all of a sudden its acting up, like an old car that just wont start up.
if there is anything else u want to place, just ask.
I'll keep my eye out for posts wile am backin up.
100gb 2 back up on 8x DVD, gonna take a wile.
I can only give 500points in this question, but I'll make a new question to give them points to the people that have helped the most.
Sal.
