This behavior may occur if Windows stops responding during a typical
operation or during the shutdown process. By default, the computer is
configured to automatically restart when Windows stops responding. To
view this setting, follow these steps:
- Click the Start button, right-click My Computer, click Properties, click the Advanced tab, and then click Settings under Start up and Recovery.
- Under System Failure, view the Automatically restart check box. If the Automatically restart check box is selected, Windows automatically restarts if the computer stops unexpectedly.
If your computer constantly restarts while you are using it, or if you
are trying to shut down the computer after it has stopped unexpectedly,
click to clear the Automatically restart check
box. If you clear this check box, you receive an error message when the
computer stops responding. This error message may describe the cause of
the problem. You can also review the system log in Event Viewer to view
the critical stop error that occurs when the computer restarts.
