Default [Resolved] Why does my computer keep restaring??

Hi,

Why does my computer keep restarting?? Whenever I turn it on and everything loads it just restarts again! How can I fix this? I have zonealarm pro (latest version) with kaspersky anti virus (latest version also) installed.


Cheers!

Try uninstalling zone alarm because I had a problem with that before. Go into safe mode and uninstall it and tell me what happens. If that doesn't work, check the fan on the processor, the processor could be getting to hot.

I uninstalled zonealarm and I started the computer on normal startup and that box appeared again saying "Microsoft windows - The system has recovered from a serious error."

A New firewall has just been posted in the download section. Its Free, Ive just downloaded it, and it seems quite good. There are other free downloads there too.
