MarksmanX 0 Posted February 12, 2000 This can be many things. Windows 2000 reboots if a fatal crash happens. I wouldn't go as far to say a hacker can control windows 2000. Windows 2000 has really good security It's probably a conflict when you run all those applications. What is your system specs? Share this post Link to post
hplant2k 0 Posted February 12, 2000 I also have a reboot issue ill say not all the time, but pretty often as soon as i get in the " add remove program " text box .. win2ooo is suddently rebooting .. damm i hate that im almost scared to open this menu box now i am the only one to have this Share this post Link to post
Distar 0 Posted February 14, 2000 just disable "reboot on system failure" in control panel / system / advanced / startup and recovery ... win2k will show u a nice bluescreen then instead of rebooting and you can actually see what application caused the crash its not a bug - its a feature Share this post Link to post
abeta 0 Posted February 16, 2000 thanks, for letting me know about this absolutely fabulous exciting new feature that bill gates decide to include in it... i will try disabling it. this doesn't happen often however only once or twice a week perhaps, really irregular wiht different actiont, one time is when i switch to winamp one time is when i click start... thx Share this post Link to post
