Computer asks me to start in other modes. When I choose one it loops back to this screen after rebooting.?

Only two things come to mind...





1. could be a virus. Try starting in safe mode and running a virus scan... or boot your computer from your virus scan software disc, such as Norton.





2. a bad RAM chip is known to do this. The only way to fix it, if it is the RAM is to replace that stick. If you don't know how to do that, then you have to take it to a tech.





These are the only two occasions I know of, so I hope it helps.

did you install a new software or hardware lately?


did windows restart before starting doing that?


The most common answer of your question is software failure(or virus) or bios problem.You should install a new copy of windows but before that try to restart bios by removing the buttery on your motherboard for 5 min or remove the jumper on your motherboard to the pins which reboots bios( check the motherboard map for that) or lastly go to a technician.Good Luck
Reply:click start windows normally
Reply:I would try what evrrdy70 suggested first.





Then, assuming you have XP, Microsoft's knowledge base has an article on it, saying the cause is a lost or corrupt Kernel32.dll file. As your probably wondering what that is, the second link has a definition of it.





I've see this and regardless of what option you pick (safe mode, safe mode with networking, normal, last good configuration etc.)


it will still restart continuously.





Hopefully, this will help.
