PC keeps restarting when I click start. Can you help?

Hi All,

Can someone help me with an issue I am having.

My PC restarts without warning when I click the start button on my start menu. It doesn't happen every time, but maybe about 1/3 of the time.

I can't work out why this is happening.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

    There could be norumerous reasons as to why this is happening, the two common reasons are courption of system files or spyware. my suggestion is to repair the files on your computer with your os disc and if this doesnt work do a full install, this usually clears up most errors which os'es face most of the time

    Try starting your computer in safe mode, (to do this start up your computer and wait for it to prompt you to press a button to delay start up, there should be an option for safe mode there somewhere) and run a virus and malware scan

    for this there is only one solution go to the task manager

    one space is there for FILE,OPTIONS,view,windows and shutdown.

    go on shut down and keep holding the control button(ctrl) then click on turn off.

    ur problem is solved.....
