Guest Alan T Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 XP Professional SP2. My system restart from time to time with blue screen stay for 2 seconds, I cannot see what's on the screen before it restarts. I can only see something like 'new hardware or software..' something like that. I know there are dump files but it seems difficult to interpret and not sure the contents are useful. Any way to see more details why it restarts.

If this screen appears again, follow these steps: Check to make sure any new hardware or software is proper installed. If this is a new installation, asky your hardware or software manufacturer for any windows updates you might need. If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software, Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode.

BTW, my motherboard is ASUS A8NE, there is no such options in BIOS to set the caching and shadowing. I remember in the old days they exist.
