Reboot hourly

wrote: My Gateway computer (5628) with Vista automatically reboots hourly without any prompts. I lose everything I'm working on. Help! You are presumably blue-screening, and you are set to reboot whenever that happens. Right-click My Computer, and choose Properties. On the Advanced tab, click Settings under Startup and Recovery. Under System failure, uncheck the box "Automatically restart. Now when the problem occurs again, instead of restarting, you will get the blue screen with diagnostic information. Post back with those details for more help. And by the way, spontaneously rebooting is almost always a hardware issue, not a Windows one. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP - Windows Desktop Experience Please Reply to the Newsgroup

Reboot hourly
I tried everything even format of drive didn't fix problem But I found this did: Control Panel /Power Options/ Balanced, Power Saver, High Pefomance whatever you choose select Edit Plan Settings/ Never Turn off the display select Never and Put the computer to sleep select Never. Continue using your Screen Saver. Manually shut down the computer.Hope this works for you! -- fuchip
