every time i start the computer, i'm asked to launch startup repair...
if i do...
startup repair runs for around 20 mins, then crashes.
if i dont...
it will get to the black screen with the windows flag in the middle, then restart itself.
I have replaced the HDD 3 times, and put a clean install of the operating system on every time. each time it has worked fine untill i turn the computer off and try to restart...the same will happen
If you have replaced the harddrive 3 times, which seems highly unlikely, you could be looking at a memory issue.
