Try this:

Go to your Control Panel >> System >> Advanced tab >> Startup and Recovery section >> Settings

In the System Failure section, make sure Automatically restart is unchecked

If Marks solution does not help, I suggest restarting you PC in Safe mode. I also suggest scaning PC with good AV

@gabjus: Did scan your computer for virus? if yes, then which software you used for cleaning it?

i used Kaspersky n when into safemode (the only mode that does not restart my com) to run it... however... nothing came out when i did the scan... :s

i suggest u to try what Solaris told. if ur computer doesnt have a virus or something ur system files must have got deleted or it must be a hardware failure.

if im not wrong u r infected by Virus..try what Solaris told...and if it is windows run install the latest anti virus to remove that virus..

[brayden]

you cant rule out hardware failiure because hardware failiure tends to stop in safe mode.

been trying Solaris told.. however... when i boot my com from the cd drive.. i dun get the blue screen... it jus goes into windows straight n den the loop starts again of restarting my com... i tried to isolate it by only allowing to boot from CD/DVD n nothing else... but den the cd won't run at all (yup my cd/dvd is configured already)... i tried to run it from another com n this time it says "boot from cd", den a messege "Press F11 for emergency recovery"... n if i dun do anything... it goes to the windows mode as if i didn't put the cd in at all... :s
