Can anyone help me? I have a computer here (My brothers actually) that constantly turns on and off by itself. Sometimes it doesn't even let you boot up until the 4th or 5th self-rebooting....it tries and then starts over and over again.
I remember not too long ago a virus did this and was hoping someone in here could tell me what virus did that....and how I can fix it? It won't let you get online either.....
No...he did not have a firewall and let Norton expire......I yelled at him already.... :)
BTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have the same thing!!!!
I don't know if you got your answer, OR if I'm able to stay online .....
My "geek" was just here. I do NOT have a virus/worm/nuthin' like that. It's a HARDWARE issue.
You MAY want to check into that.
HI.,..the problem was definetly Virus....had about 27 different viruses on it! Some are quaranteened and will never come completely out. Alot of harm can be done with a cable modem and no virus or firewall protection! :)
Good luck with your computer.....and thanks for replying.
