If you have the System Shutdown problem, look in here to learn how to fix it...

I wish I had your problem Rev, atleast I could play a game . My system won't start at all...stupid computer. It's still doing it as well, can't be a heating problem either because I just had the fans replaced. I'm starting to think something happened to it and I was too late to fix it. I'd rather just buy another computer instead of waiting a week for someone to even LOOK at my computer.

dude just do what squick says. Pop in win xp disk restart

Then while its still in dos-esque mode, it will say " press any key to boot from disk' or the like.

You then slap your keyboard, and then it will pop up with an installation screen, hit repair, and let it repair itself. dont be lazy. its not that hard dude.

Did I forget to mention this? My machine was custom built and the guy decided he didn't want to give me the disk. He moved to Seattle so I'm kinda screwed, unless I buy a new copy, either way someone's coming tomorrow to fix it.
