Hello,

I've installed a new mobo and processor. When I logon I get to my desktop but after a couple of minutes the system reboots back to the logon page. This happens 9 out of 10 times, the other time everything is fine. Everything worked great with the old mobo and processor.

Details:- Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H motherboard and AMD Phenom quad core 9850 processor. DVD, CDROM and one Hard Drive all IDE plus another SATA Hard Drive. CDROM and DVD drives are connected via a SATA IDE PCI adapter and are showing as parallel master and slave.

While changing config you should format your pc as windows integrated your previous system config in the system 32. You really need to format !

Thanks, just to be clear you're saying that I need to format the PC from the original XP discs?
