Problem with XP Automatically Logging off
hello everyone ,
My computer would not turn on, just did three beeps. I reasearched it and found it could be ram or more likely the video card. So I got a new stick of ram and ruled that out. Still had the problem. So I changed the video card. I replaced it with a dual monitor card to get it working again. And now it starts up and goes to the log in screen and I try to log in, and the background pops up but then after one or two seconds it says logging off. Does anyone have an idea to what could be the problem? Thanks. |

When you reboot, install the new video card drivers. -- spammage trappage: replace fishies_ with yahoo |

All exploit patches applied? sounds like that 'services' virus.. I
don't think a 'driver' would cause a ' logging off-shutting down' display screen "pootie" wrote in message ... hello everyone , My computer would not turn on, just did three beeps.

I really dont think it is a virus problem. Now that I think of it, my
online gaming seemed to be getting really choppy and inconsistant. I think that was signs of the video card going bad. Im going to buy a cheap video card and see if that fixes the problem. As far as safe mode...it wouldn't even get there. Same for the repair mode using the xp cd. I may really be in a hard space. :x |

you really don't think, I C ok then it must not have a virus. Have
you actually run an antivirus? "pootie" wrote in message ... I really dont think it is a virus problem. Now that I think of it, my online gaming seemed to be getting really choppy and inconsistant.
