Computer Constantly reboots? - How to turn off Auto Reboot

Windows Xp has a feature whereby the operating system will cause the computer to reboot whenever a critical error is detected. If your Windows XP computer is rebooting, perhaps randomly and quite frequently then you could try turning this feature off which will instead give you an error message. Once you have the error message it should help either you or one of the tech's on our forum help you :)
